Avery Dennison Label and Graphic Materials recognized 24 pressure sensitive industry suppliers for the company’s annual Global Supplier Awards, held virtually on May 12, 2022.

Eight Supplier Distinction awards and six Special Recognition awards were granted for extraordinary service to our business, as well as 10 Special Recognition awards for outstanding service in the months following Storm Uri.

“Storm Uri heavily impacted the supply chain and posed several challenges that our suppliers met head-on,” said Kamran Kian, VP Global Ops & SC. “All of our winners have shown exemplary performance and dedication, and their outstanding commitment to our business deserves recognition.”

The Avery Dennison Supplier Distinction Award Program considers four areas of excellence required to maintain a competitive advantage in an increasingly demanding industry: Quality, Service, Sustainability and Strategic Growth. To be considered eligible for recognition, a supplier must have met key metrics in each of the four areas.
