PITTSBURGH, PA — December 14, 2009
CombineNet, the leading provider of advanced sourcing and optimization technologies, announced today that Food Logistics magazine has recognized the company as a ‘2009 Top FL100.’ Each year, Food Logistic honors the top 100 solution and service providers that are helping food, beverage and CPG companies gain a competitive logistical advantage.
Our goal with the FL100 is to highlight a broad range of technology solutions and services that are targeted at the food industry, addressing the needs of companies of varying sizes that make up the food supply chain,” explains Katherine Doherty, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics magazine. “These companies rely on technology to better manage their supply chains and help weather the financial storm. The FL100 recipients have demonstrated that they can meet our readers' specific needs."
