Stellar Industrial Supply names 2024 Supplier of the Year
Stellar Industrial Supply has named Kimberly-Clark Professional as its Supplier of the Year (SOY) award winner for 2024.
The award is based on participation in the Stellar Industrial Supply Documented Cost Savings (DCS) program, which overall saved customers more than $27 million in 2024, and represented an almost 16% increase compared to 2023. To qualify, supply partners must generate at least 15% savings for customers based on DCS guidelines. The company also announced national personal safety manufacturer Radians as a new STARS Supplier partner.
The Stellar DCS program aims to foster “Ideal Customer-Supplier Partnerships.” Working on behalf of both parties, Stellar Industrial Supply says it deploys the most efficient, cost-effective products that optimize plant operations and help run them smartly and safely. Since its inception in 2010, the DCS program has generated over $218M in cost savings, all of which are customer verified.
“Kimberly-Clark Professional is an invaluable member of the Stellar Industrial Supply partner community, who delivers on the Stellar Way to consistently deliver integrity, exemplary experiences, enhanced value and cost savings for our customers,” said Stellar Industrial Supply President and CEO John S. Wiborg.
From its 20 regional hubs coast to coast, Stellar distributes more than 90,000 MRO products and tools from more than 1,500 brands for safety, metalworking, marine supply, aerospace, and other general manufacturing and processing organizations, and also offers customized indirect material management.
