We are delighted to be announced as finalists in the 2025 Supply Chain Excellence Awards.
Life Couriers are shortlisted in two categories at this year’s awards via our Direct-to-Patient Delivery Service: ‘The Healthcare & Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Excellence Award’ and ‘The Customer Service Award’.
Both awards honor our longstanding collaboration in the UK with Essity, a leading global hygiene and health company.
Setting the standard in supply chain management
The Supply Chain Excellence Awards, now in their 29th year, honor businesses in the logistics sector who are “setting the standard for best practices in European supply chain management”.
Held in collaboration with Logistics Manager magazine (the UK’s premier publication for supply chain and logistics professionals), the awards culminate in a glittering ceremony in November at London’s Grosvenor House.
The DSV Healthcare & Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Excellence Award
This award celebrates logistics providers who provide an invaluable service to the Healthcare and Pharmaceutical sectors, by ensuring that medicines and healthcare essentials arrive at their destination in a timely and precise manner.
Life Couriers’ work with leading healthcare providers and our proven track-record for logistics excellence has already seen awards nominations this year, following a shortlist for Best International Business at the Central South Business Awards in July.
This latest nomination follows another finalist placement in the same category in 2023.
The Customer Service Award
This award celebrates logistics providers who have showcased outstanding customer service for a particular customer in any enterprise.
For Life Couriers, this nomination outlines our commitment to continuous improvement within the time-critical industry of healthcare logistics. Our core values of prioritising the needs of the patient, coupled with our expertise and willingness to go above and beyond for our customers, positions us at the forefront of this highly competitive arena.
Celebrating a culture of excellence
“We’re incredibly proud to be shortlisted in these two categories,” states Peter Smith, Managing Director at Life Couriers UK. “Our team works tirelessly to ensure every delivery arrives on time and is treated with the care it deserves, because behind every delivery is a patient depending on us.”
Richard Hunt, Head Judge of the Supply Chain Excellence Awards, commented: “These entries demonstrate the rude health of the sector. The warm embrace given to new technology, the commitment to sustainability and the relentless drive for efficiency all show a healthy, energetic industry determined to continuously improve.”
For Life Couriers, these nominations highlight our commitment to excellence and our growing recognition as a highly trusted and dependable logistics provider in the healthcare and life sciences sectors.
