HOUSTON, April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- CEVA Logistics, one of the world's
leading providers of supply chain logistics services, today announced the
company has been named General Procurement Supplier of the Year by Dell
Inc. Joe Bento, President, CEVA Freight Management, recently accepted the

Each year, Dell's Worldwide Procurement organization reviews thousands

the company's highly regarded standards for customer service and
efficiencies in supply chain management capabilities. Suppliers are
evaluated on their performance, competitive pricing, quality service,
customer support and proactive solutions.
"Partnering with suppliers such as CEVA help enable Dell to make
technology more affordable and accessible for our customers," said Martin
Garvin, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Procurement, Dell. "As we continue
to refine our global supply chain, we'll partner with suppliers that can
scale and deliver the quality products and services we'll require to
compete in an ever-changing global market."
CEVA has partnered with Dell since 1997 when the company was awarded
its first contract to provide domestic airfreight services. Since that time
CEVA has expanded its service capabilities to include transportation and
logistics projects throughout the world. "It is rewarding to see how our
partnership with Dell has grown over the years. Their confidence in our
service confirms our culture of operational excellence and personalized
service is the foundation for a successful customer experience," added
