Concord, N.C. (December 17, 2012) – Cardinal Hosted Logistics™, a provider of customized dedicated technology solutions and division of Cardinal Logistics Management Corporation, announced that it has been named to Food Logistics’ coveted 2012 FL100 list. Food Logistics, the only publication dedicated exclusively to the food and beverage supply chain, recently announced the ninth annual FL100 list in its November/December 2012 issue.

In its second year available as Software as a Service, Cardinal Hosted Logistics is proud to add the FL100 to its list of accolades. Cardinal’s innovative supply chain management technology solutions supported its efforts to be recognized on this prestigious list.

“We are pleased to be named among the FL100,” said Tom Hostetler, CEO of Cardinal. “Cardinal Hosted Logistics has worked exceptionally hard on building a reputation for offering innovative solutions to the food and beverage industry. Our team is especially pleased to be recognized by Food Logistics Magazine for our efforts.”

Each year, the editors of Food Logistics recognize 100 software and technology providers that help food and beverage manufacturers, foodservice distributors, and grocery retailers attain their business goals. The FL100 is comprised of software providers as well as equipment and technology companies whose products and services play a significant role in food and beverage supply chains.

“With the evolution of the food supply chain, software and technology providers are playing a more critical role in addressing needs such as end-to-end visibility and collaboration, traceability, regulatory compliance, risk management, sustainability, and cost containment,” notes Lara L. Sowinski, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics. “Technology is the competitive differentiator for companies in our industry who need to stay ahead of dynamic changes in the marketplace.”

Cardinal Hosted Logistics, a division of Cardinal Logistics Management Corporation, offers logistics solutions that are custom-designed and able to handle complex transportation challenges. In addition to Cardinal’s service to food companies, it also serves customers in construction and building materials, retail, JIT manufacturing support, recycling and agriculture.

The FL100 listing serves as a resource for grocery and foodservice distribution and manufacturing executives. After receiving applications from end users and software and technology providers, the editorial staff reviewed over 165 submissions to compile this year’s list. Final recipients are featured in the November/December 2012 issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com.

The FL100 is not a ranking. The alphabetical list has been designed to help the readers of Food Logistics identify the leading software and technology providers in the food and beverage industry.
