GRIMSBY, Ontario—Cimcorp, a pioneer of intralogistics automation, specialized in fresh food handling and tire-handling solutions, announces Derek Rickard, Director of Sales, and Adam Gurga, Sales Manager for North America, have been named to  Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s 2023 Pros to Know award list. The annual award list recognizes outstanding executives whose accomplishments offer a roadmap for other leaders looking to leverage supply chain for competitive advantage.

The 2023 Pros to Know winners are professionals who work to promote safety, sustainability, and workforce development in the supply chain. Rickard and Gurga were selected for helping clients across industries implement automated end-to-end order fulfillment solutions to solve their biggest warehousing and distribution challenges. Understanding that every facility’s needs are unique, Rickard and Gurga recommend the ideal combination of robotic hardware and intelligent software to help each customer:

• Optimize material flow
• Overcome labor shortages
• Increase speed, efficiency and throughput 
• Improve workplace safety and satisfaction
• Generate rapid ROI

Notably, Rickard and Gurga also work to deliver long-term, sustainable automated solutions able to accommodate business growth. Through Cimcorp’s modular technology, clients gain the flexibility to scale their levels of automation as needed to maintain a competitive advantage, long into the future.

“I’m honored to be named to this year’s Pros to Know list alongside my colleague and friend Derek Rickard,” said Gurga. “This win wouldn’t be possible without our entire team at Cimcorp who motivate us every day. Through our cumulative efforts, we are able to help our clients implement the best automated solution for their needs, whether they be in the retail, grocery, or even tire industry.”

“This award serves as proof that today’s supply chain professionals are doing great things for the supply chain. They embody what a true leader should be. And, without their initiatives, programs and collaborative efforts, today’s supply chains would be in worse shape,” said Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Food Logistics.
