Ismaning near Munich, March 1, 2021. The proposal portal of the Logistics Hall of Fame is open again and anyone can suggest personalities and groups of people for induction into the worldwide Hall of Fame or submit an application. The achievement can be technical, strategic, scientific, managerial or entrepreneurial. The decisive factor is that it is not only beneficial for an individual company, but has a positive impact on logistics as a whole. The achievement must therefore have been formative for logistics, theoretical concepts are not enough.

In the first round of voting, the Logistics Hall of Fame Council nominates the candidates from which the international jury of experts chooses the new member.

In addition, the Logistics Hall of Fame will once again elect the "TRATON Logistics Leader of the Year". Proposals for this can also be submitted now. "Logistics leaders prove themselves in times of crisis and stand out from the crowd. They are the future makers and trendsetters of the industry," explains jury chairwoman Anita Würmser. The decisive factor for the award is that logistics entrepreneurs or managers have been particularly successful in promoting their companies or have set a trend-setting impulse. The focus is on topicality and the benefits for the company as well as innovative strength, sustainability and entrepreneurial change. With this honour, the Logistics Hall of Fame wants to document current top performances in logistics and supply chain management in addition to its preservation function. The Logistics Hall of Fame wants to bring the efficiency and innovative strength of the industry even more into the public eye. The donator is the VW subsidiary TRATON SE with its brands MAN, Scania, Volkswagen Caminhões e Ônibus and RIO.

Proposals or applications for both awards can be submitted free of charge in German or English until May 14, 2021 - only online at www.logisticshalloffame.net. The newly elected member and the "TRATON Logistics Leader of the Year" will be honoured at the annual Logistics Hall of Fame reception, which traditionally takes place in the historic Erich Klausener Hall of the Federal Ministry of Transport in Berlin. The Logistics Hall of Fame is supported by politics, associations, media, business and science. The patron is the German Federal Transport Minister Andreas Scheuer.

The Hall of Fame can be accessed free of charge at any time at www.logisticshalloffame.net and offers information about the logistics milestones and their creators.
