“I could not be more proud of our entire Supply Chain team’s resilience during the extremely challenging last 18 months,” said Jeff Loy, senior director of Supply Chain at Erlanger.

“In the midst of ongoing supply chain disruptions around the world, to be recognized nationally speaks volumes of our team’s hard work and support of Erlanger’s mission.”
