The Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) announced the creation of the inaugural Annual Supply Chain Professionals Day in 2018, honoring the professionals responsible for the buy, make, move, and sell activities that comprise the modern supply chain. While National Truck Driver Appreciation Week and National Healthcare Supply Chain Week exist, there has yet to be an official day to celebrate most professionals representing the end-to-end supply chain daily.
"Our organization represents thousands of supply chain professionals across the world. The creation of the Annual Supply Chain Professionals Day allows us to recognize this growing and evolving discipline and the professionals who serve within it," said Rick Blasgen, CSCMP President and Chief Executive Officer.
The idea for a professional organization of distribution managers (later referred to as logistics managers) was first conceived in May of 1962 to meet an urgent need for continuing education and to provide an opportunity for an interchange of ideas in this rapidly growing profession that has come to be known today as supply chain management.
Fifty-six years later, CSCMP continues to serve today's supply chain professionals. Built by members, for members, CSCMP connects, develops, and educates the world's logistics and supply chain management professionals throughout their careers. No matter where you are in your career development, CSCMP has the resources to help you achieve your goals.
"It's exciting to see that we finally have an occasion to celebrate supply chain professionals' contributions to our global economy. All too often, our profession can remain behind-thescenes and it doesn't always get the proper recognition for the important role we play in the success of our organizations. Supply Chain Professionals Day should create an excellent opportunity each year to show appreciation for those who have careers in the various aspects of the end-to-end supplychain," said Mark Bray of ACR Supply Company and President of the CSCMP Raleigh Roundtable.
