Inland has been awarded Packaging Materials Supplier of the Year by MillerCoors. Winners were announced May 16 at MillerCoors’ corporate headquarters in Chicago when MillerCoors Procurement held its annual Supplier Recognition Awards event. The purpose of the event is to recognize the excellence of MillerCoors’ most valued suppliers. Inland was one of 10 different suppliers that were honored for exemplary performance in key strategic categories.

“Inland has proven time and time again that they are more than just a supplier, but a true partner,” said Ben Vandlen, Regional Category Director for MillerCoors.  “They’ve consistently provide top notch customer service, reliable quality, and fresh innovation to ensure we are at the leading edge in the industry.”

Mike Miller, Inland’s Strategic Account Executive on the MillerCoors account comments, “Winning supplier of the year is not a new achievement for us, but it shows that we continue to be a valued partner to MillerCoors day in a day out.  This is truly an Inland Family recognition.”

This is the 7th Supplier of the Year award Inland has received from MillerCoors since Miller Brewing Company and Coors merged in 2008. Prior to that, Inland won 5 supplier awards from Miller Brewing Company and 5 from Coors Brewing Company individually.
