EnerSys® Receives Consecutive MHEDA Most Valuable Supplier Award in 2022
READING, Pennsylvania, March 15, 2022 – EnerSys® (NYSE:ENS), the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications, has again earned the prestigious Most Valuable Supplier (MVS) Award from the Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA) in 2022. Every year, MHEDA recognizes fewer than 10 percent of all member companies with the MVS Award to acknowledge suppliers that have demonstrated a strong commitment to their dealer network, employees and the community.
“It is rewarding for EnerSys® to again receive the MHEDA MVS Award,” said Chad Uplinger, Vice President, Motive Power Americas at EnerSys. “This award is not only a testament to the productive relationship that we’ve built with our distributors, but also exemplifies our commitment to the industry to provide training and educational resources for safer, more productive operations. Our thanks to MHEDA for continuing to be an invaluable resource in the material handing industry.”
To qualify for the 2022 MVS Award, EnerSys® was required to meet a series of criteria in several key areas of Industry Advocacy, Distributor Advocacy, Business Networking, Continuing Education and Business Best Practices. In addition to confirming an ongoing commitment to safety and employee training, award recipients also provided documentation of active participation in a program that “gives back” to the community.
“Achieving the MVP Award demonstrates a company’s dedication to constantly improving the material handling industry,” said Tom Albero, Chairman and CEO of Alliance Material Handling Inc. and 2022 MHEDA Chairman. “It is an honor and privilege for MHEDA to have so many companies achieve this award that requires continual improvement in customer and employee satisfaction and never-ending education of our industry throughout your organization.”
