Hanon Systems Selected as GM's '2019 Supplier of the Year'

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Ji-hee] Hanon Systems announced on the 2nd that it was selected as GM's Supplier of the Year at the 28th GM Supplier Awards ceremony held online in the United States on the 24th of last month (local time).

GM selected 116 outstanding suppliers from 15 countries worldwide who created innovative value over the past year. The event was originally scheduled as a live event in March but was postponed due to the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

Hanon Systems received the honor for the third consecutive year. Including the two selections in 1997 and 2000 when it was Hanla Air Conditioning, its predecessor, this is the fifth time.

Silfan Amin, GM's Vice President of Global Purchasing and Supply Chain, said, "Our suppliers play a crucial role in delivering the products, services, and experiences our customers want, and the awarded outstanding suppliers have achieved results beyond our expectations."

The Supplier of the Year selection is based on performance criteria in product purchasing, global purchasing and production services, customer management, after-sales service, and logistics.

Nerdal Kuchukaya, Co-CEO of Hanon Systems, said, "We are honored to be selected again as GM's outstanding supplier this year," adding, "This achievement is proof of Hanon Systems' commitment to providing value through efforts to build customer-first relationships based on excellent global talent and innovative thermal energy management solutions."
