The Hermes Retail Week Supply Chain Awards 2014 recognise innovation and excellence in the retail supply chain.

Leading retailers and suppliers from across the country celebrated the outstanding achievements of supply chain teams throughout UK retail at the London Hilton Park Lane last night.

Retail Week’s commercial editor and host of the awards Charlotte Hardie said: “The image of retail supply chain has been transformed. The modern retail supply chain is customer facing and customer driven. It is innovative and inventive. It is collaborative and people focused. In short, without supply chain excellence there is no retail excellence.”
