Representatives of 160 selected suppliers took part in the event in Berlin. The award was presented in five categories: Innovation, Sustainability, Launch of the Year, Local Performance Champion and Global Performance Champion.
Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Board of Management of the Volkswagen Group, Member of the Board of Management of the Volkswagen Group, Thomas Schmall, Member of the Board of Management of the Board of Management for Development, Michael Steiner, and Board Member for Procurement, Dirk Grobe-Loheide, presented the 11 awards and thanked the best suppliers of the past year for their commitment and cooperation.
Dirk Grobe-Loheide said: "The automotive industry is undergoing the greatest transformation in its history. It will require us and our suppliers to realign ourselves in many areas.
