ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--goBeyondProfit announced it is honoring Georgia-based Vector Global Logistics, a logistics and supply chain company that is coordinating aid to the people of Ukraine, as a winner of the goBeyondProfit Champion award for 2022.
Vector Global Logistics, and its Co-Founder and Managing Director Enrique Alvarez, were nominated and selected for this award by fellow Georgia business leaders for their dedication to leveraging logistics to change the world, most recently aiding the residents of war-torn Ukraine.
“The war in Ukraine is not only a humanitarian crisis, but also a significant supply chain crisis as well,” said Enrique Alvarez. “For us, we feel a personal responsibility to offer our unique logistics capabilities as part of the solution, connecting suppliers, clients, local governments, even our competitors together in order to deliver much needed aid.”
In recent months, Vector has coordinated shipments of more than 500,000 pounds of supplies including first aid kits, hygiene items, disaster blankets, clothing and even children’s books to support victims of the ongoing war.
“Vector’s audacious goal to change the world through supply chain fuses together purpose and core business capabilities for a powerful, global impact,” said Megan McCamey, goBeyondProfit Founding President. “We believe their story offers an inspiring road map for fellow business leaders.”
