The President’s “E Star” Award from the Department of Commerce was given to Global4PL for Export Service.

MILPITAS, Calif. – Global4PL was presented with the 2023 President’s “E Star” Award by U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo for its significant contributions to expanding U.S. business in international markets. The President’s “E” Award is the highest recognition any U.S. entity can receive for making a significant contribution to the expansion of U.S. exports.

Created in 1961 by an Executive Order of President John F. Kennedy, the “E” Award is the highest recognition that any U.S. organization can receive for significantly contributing to the expansion of U.S. exports. The award was presented by Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo at a ceremony in Washington, DC. A total of 24 organizations from 14 different states were recognized at the ceremony, with only two entities were awarded the “E” Star Award for Export Service, which recognizes previous “E” Awardees that have shown four years of continued support of exporters since first winning the “E” Award. One was Global4PL, a leading provider of supply chain solutions.
