DC Velocity earns editorial, design honors

We work hard here at DC Velocity to bring you the best-written, best-designed magazine and Web site in the industry. Our greatest reward for all that work is your satisfaction and loyalty, but we certainly don't mind being recognized for excellence in other ways—like awards. In fact, we've recently received three awards from professional associations.

"Outbound," the lively commentary on the world of logistics and current events that appears on the last page of each issue of DC Velocity, received a 2009 Northeast Region "Azbee" award from the American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE) for Best Staff-written Column. And in what has become an annual tradition, Director of Creative Services Keisha Christopher won yet another award from Graphic Design USA for Overall Magazine Design. Her work for DC Velocity has been recognized by GDUSA every year since the magazine was launched.

Finally, the article "how green are your pallets?" which appeared in the November 2008 issue, received an Honorable Mention in the 2009 Outstanding Material Handling and Logistics Content Award Competition conducted by the College-Industry Council on Material Handling Education (CICMHE).
