 “SCN’s annual Top 50 recognition has long been a practical reference for a multitude of stakeholders to understand the key players and organizational shifts across the industry.”  Shared Byron Tarry, CEO of GPA globally.  “It has also been an annual opportunity also a chance for those within the recognized companies to celebrate the role they have played in their own organization’s growth.  It’s under that premise that I am most excited about this recognition, a testament to the 4800 diverse, passionate, and globally committed individuals that power our global GPA community and have built GPA into the powerhouse this ranking confirms.”
