Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the food supply chain, this week announced the inclusion of Cryo-Trans, Inc. in its fifth-annual listing of the Top 85 3PLs in its July/August 2010 issue. These 3PLs offer a broad scope of services and capabilities that enable food companies to reduce costs, increase flexibility and improve service levels. Food Logistics congratulated Cryo-Trans, Inc. on its nomination and acceptance as part of its annual Top 85 3PLs listing, saying, “Cryo-Trans’ leadership as a third-party logistics provider for the food and beverage industries has made you stand out among your peers, and we are pleased to include you in this year's Top 85 3PL issue.”

“Food distribution is a very complex business and 3PLs play a crucial role in the supply chain,” explained Katherine Doherty, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics magazine. While most 3PLs have felt the effects of the economic downturn, the Top 85 continue to respond to their customers’ needs and rise to the logistical challenges that today’s food organizations face. Our annual list has grown to 85 companies, reflecting the changing and diverse needs of our readers,” said Doherty. “We’ve expanded this list to help our readers find and evaluate 3PL partners that can help them achieve their goals.”

After receiving nomination forms from end users and solution providers, the editorial staff culled through the submissions to compile this year’s Top 85 3PLs listing. Final recipients are featured in the cover story of the July/August issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com. The Top 85 3PLs is a listing of third-party logistics providers that are helping food, beverage and CPG companies gain a competitive logistical advantage. Food Logistics’ goal with the Top 85 3PLs listing is to highlight a broad range of 3PL services targeted at the food industry, addressing the needs of companies of varying sizes that make up the food supply chain.
