Independent Carton Group presents Supplier of the Year Awards
The Independent Carton Group (ICG), an association of 18 independently owned and operated folding carton manufacturers, announces that Clearwater Paper Corporation (clearwaterpaper.com) and Henkel Corporation (henkel.com) have both been presented with the ICG Supplier of the Year Award for 2016. The award is presented annually to the ICG supplier that receives the highest marks on performance evaluations completed by ICG members for the prior calendar year. This is the first time in the history of the award that the member evaluations resulted in a tie, causing the group to present two suppliers with the coveted award.
“In six years of presenting this award, we have never had a tie, and while we could have initiated a tiebreaker, it was clear from the evaluations that both Henkel and Clearwater Paper earned the award and deserved recognition,” says Andrew Willie, executive director emeritus of the ICG.
