GEODIS Honored with Lenovo Logistics Excellence Award for Service in the Americas

NASHVILLE and SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 22 July 2021 – GEODIS, a global supply chain operator, has been recognized by Lenovo, a Fortune Global 500 company and technology leader in smart devices and solutions, with the Logistics Excellence Award. GEODIS was recently honored for its service in the Americas region at Lenovo’s annual Suppliers Conference.

Lenovo,
a leading manufacturer in connected devices such as laptops, PCs, tablets and
smartphones, experienced significant sales growth over the past year despite
the constraints imposed on the global economy and restrictions to the supply
chain due to the COVID-19 pandemic. GEODIS played a prominent role in Lenovo’s
sales growth by providing supply chain and logistics solutions and an agile
approach that enabled the company to navigate the dynamics of the pandemic.

“We are thrilled to receive
this prestigious award from Lenovo, a company that we’ve been proud to partner
with since 2019,” said Eric Martin-Neuville, GEODIS’ Executive Vice President
of the Freight Forwarding activity. “Businesses across the globe faced unprecedented
supply chain challenges this past year. We are proud of
our teams dedicated to the Lenovo business—especially those in China, Hong Kong
and the Americas—who worked closely to navigate the high demands for
capacity and service securing its supply chain. Our mission at GEODIS is to
always find solutions for our customers’ problems and help them grow their
businesses, which is precisely what we were able to accomplish in our work with
Lenovo.”

Notably,
GEODIS was recognized by Lenovo for this year’s award due to its innovative air
freight solutions connecting China to North America. GEODIS AirDirect provides
air freight service through its Own Controlled Network to offer a reliable,
consistent schedule to help provide safe transport of cargo from major
destinations across continents to fill the urgent need for capacity. GEODIS
operates several key routes, including AirDirect Greater China – Mexico, which offers
