ODW Logistics’ senior inventory manager, Kayla Watson, and ON Partners' Heidi Hoffman were named the recipients of the 2023 Women in Supply Chain award by Supply & Demand Chain Executive as well as Food Logistics.
“The impact that Kayla has had on the company has been long-lasting,” said Jeff Clark, the EVP of ODW Logistics. “She is a company leader who continues to share her skills and expertise through the mentorship of other inventory managers and supervisors who have moved into new roles at ODW. This has opened the door for several female leaders specifically, and I’m certain more to come. It is for these reasons and more that she is deserving of this award.”
“It’s always an honor and privilege to be recognized by your industry peers,” said Hoffman. “This award specifically is a testament to the incredible strides that women are making in the supply chain functions and the broader industry. We’re breaking barriers and proving that we have what it takes to excel and succeed, but there’s still work to be done. We need more women in this field, and I am determined to support and empower them every step of the way.”
Award recipients will be recognized at the Women in Supply Chain Forum held in Atlanta, Georgia on November 14 and November 15.
