NILES, Ill., Nov. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AFN Logistics, an award-winning logistics firm recognized for its unique culture, exceptional service, and impactful solutions, is continuing its award win streak with two more trophies secured this week. The company, which serves the needs of major manufacturers, top-20 retailers and best-in-class carriers, received a Gold award for "Best Place to Work" and the Bronze award for "Most Customer-Friendly Company of the Year" by the highly regarded Best in Biz Awards.
The sixth annual program garnered more than 600 entries from an array of public and private companies of all sizes.

Winners were determined based on scoring from an independent panel of 50 judges from widely known media outlets and research firms including the Associated Press, ZDNet, CNET, Computerworld, Forbes, Wall Street Journal, WIRED and more.
The "Best Place to Work" category acknowledged companies that demonstrated employee satisfaction and well-being programs such as flexible work arrangements, mentoring, financial and lifestyle perks. AFN won gold in the medium-size company category for its relentless dedication to creating a fun, rewarding and empowering workplace where every team member can meaningfully contribute to the success of the organization.
The "Most Customer Friendly Company of the Year" award acknowledged businesses that demonstrated customer satisfaction and customer support success rates, including efficient response times and satisfactory resolution of customer concerns. AFN won bronze in the combined medium and large category, a testament to the company's focus on exceeding customer expectations and driving sustainable achievement on their behalf.
These two awards follow a series of wins secured by AFN throughout the year, including:
- ChicagoInno's "Coolest Companies" acknowledging the 11 Chicago businesses and start-ups with the best culture;
