La Cañada Flintridge, CA—Feb 15, 2022— Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the global cold food supply chain, named Chetan Tandon from Allen Lund Company LLC, ALC Logistics as one of the winners of the 2022 Rock Stars of the Supply Chain award, which recognizes influential individuals in the industry whose achievements, hard work and vision have shaped the global cold food supply chain.
“Behind every great company is an even greater leader. And, the supply chain leaders receiving this award are no exception,” says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “Within the last 18 months or so, the cold food chain has seen a lot of rock stars rise to the occasion. These rock stars developed platforms, integrated automation, and led teams through disruption after disruption. They’ve helped their companies pivot and adapt, and continue to do so with grace, agility, flexibility, and resilience. These rock stars are strong in so many ways. Congratulations to the true rock stars of the supply chain, who continue to keep the cold food chain moving.”
From Chetan Tandon, “Seeing a customer excited when the systems go live is my favorite part of the job. I love creating high-end systems to improve food distribution across the U.S. “I built the AlchemyTMS systems in a way to make every installation unique to that customer. Each customer has individual transportation needs, and the system had to be flexible enough to work for everyone while being powerful enough to handle thousands of loads. The average produce and food loads have six times the changes in transit compared to dry loads.”
Executive VP of Allen Lund Company, Kenny Lund commented, “Chetan is an innovator who designs and builds practical solutions that enhance the relationship between shippers and transportation providers. He works to understand the challenge and then executes perfectly time and time again. We are tremendously proud of his accomplishments.”
