The deadline to submit entries to the European Supply Chain Excellence Awards has been extended to July 24th. 

It is hoped the move will allow firms more time to complete their entries and put themselves forward for consideration. 

Winners of the 2015 Awards will be announced at a glittering ceremony, which is due to take place at the London Hilton on Park Lane on November 16th. 

Supply Chain Standard has organised the European Supply Chain Excellence Awards in association with PricewaterhouseCoopers. 

Some of the biggest companies in Europe - including the likes of Vodafone, BASF, Danone Baby Nutrition and GlaxoSmithKline - count themselves among past winners. 

Last year saw a record number of entries submitted, with 72 firms making it to the final stage of award judging - and the organiser's expect 2015 to be bigger still.
