Neptune Orient Lines (
NOL), and its container shipping subsidiary, APL, this week received top prizes at the Asia Logistics Awards 2006.
NOL was lauded for Ethical Responsibility and APL was named Shipping Line of the Year at a gala ceremony in Singapore attended by more than 300 senior representatives of the global logistics and
freight transportation industries.
NOL’s supply chain management business APL Logistics was also a finalist in the Seafreight Forwarder and 3PL of the Year categories.
The
annual awards are based on votes cast by the readers of leading supply chain management publication Lloyd’s Freight Transport Buyer Asia, as well as the Asian readerships of Containerisation International and International Freighting Weekly. Once the votes were cast, an independent panel of judges chose the award finalists and the ultimate winners.
