Food Shippers of America Congratulates SmartWay Transport Partners Who Are Recipients of a US EPA 2020 SmartWay Excellence Award

Award Recipients Are Top Environmental Performers and Leaders for Freight Supply Chain Efficiency

Several of our members and member service providers were honored with a SmartWay® Excellence Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as true industry leaders in freight supply chain environmental performance and energy efficiency. These companies represent the top-performing, environmentally responsible SmartWay Partners that move more goods more miles with lower emissions and less energy.  Excellence Award recipients were announced at a virtual press event hosted by the EPA with its SmartWay Partners, key stakeholders and media in attendance. The award recipients are listed below.

“EPA is pleased to honor these SmartWay Partners with a 2020 Excellence Award,” said Karl Simon, Director, EPA’s Transportation & Climate Division. “These Awardee recipients continue to lead through these challenging times, working diligently to manufacture products, manage shipments and deliver to our families the goods and supplies we need each day, while contributing to a healthier, more sustainable future for our children.” This year’s Awardee list is a diverse group with about one-third first-time Awardees, about one-third of which have received the award at least five times, and three Awardees in multiple categories. This range of repeat and first-time Awardees demonstrates the competitive nature of this recognition – any company is only as good as its last year’s environmental performance data. The Awardees are geographically diverse with at least one Awardee from all but one EPA Region, and six from Canada.
