PLEASANTON, Calif., Dec. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively covering the movement of product through the global cold food supply chain, and Supply & Demand Chain Executive, the only publication covering the entire global supply chain, selected Blume Global as one of this year's Top Tech Startup, which spotlights top software and technology startups in the supply chain and logistics space.

"The pandemic emphasized the need for resilience in the supply chain, but more importantly, equipping organizations with the tools to anticipate and mitigate any disruptions forecasted in their supply chains," said Pervinder Johar, CEO of Blume Global. "We are honored to be a recipient of this award amongst other players in this space and to be recognized for our contributions to developing tomorrow's supply chain. With an admirable growth projection, satisfied customer base and our dedication to the mission of digitizing the supply chain, Blume continues to prove itself as a large player in the technology space."

This year's winners play in a variety of different market sectors, however AI-powered automation and real-time transportation visibility make up a majority of the winners (35% and 33%, respectively) and bring in $1 million to $20 million-plus in revenue per year.

"From seed funding rounds to launching new solutions, many of today's tech startups are poised to disrupt the supply chain space. They're introducing new innovations, improving user experiences and striving for that safer, smarter, more efficient supply chain," said Marina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. "The future of the supply chain industry is directly impacted by the development of these new technologies, and I'm very excited to see what's next for these winners."
