The PPTI Awards, which are in their 12th year and recognize the latest innovative developments in the postal and parcel industry, were announced this week at the Parcel+Post Expo Virtual Live conference.
In addition to receiving the “Sorting and Fulfillment Technology of the Year” Award, Quadient’s Parcel Pending Lite automated electronic parcel locker system was named a finalist in the “Final Mile Innovation of the Year” category. The two recognitions showcase Quadient’s innovative parcel management solutions whether at the beginning of the fufillment process or in the final mile of package distribution.
The award winners were chosen by a panel of leading industry executives from around the globe. Judge Khalil Daoud, chairman and managing director, LibanPost, said, “The projects and entries this year were almost all responsive to the Covid-19 crisis and exponential growth in e-commerce. The winning entries were judged on their flexible offer and the accommodation of clients’ preferences at every stage of the transaction in a seamless way, creating a smart synergy to leverage the retail network.”
