Intralox, was recently named 'Supplier of the Year' by Tyson Foods, a long-time partner of Intralox. Tyson presented the award to several of its suppliers in recognition of their contributions in continuous improvement, customer satisfaction, sales and technical support, and ease of doing business.
Intralox values meaningful relationships with its customers. By working closely together, Intralox is able to understand customers' needs and challenges and respond with effective solutions. This type of business partnership has leveraged dual successes for Tyson and Intralox over the years.

While completing over 3,200 transactions with Tyson in the past year, Intralox maintained a 99.8% accuracy and on-time shipment rate. Additionally, Tyson was among the first protein processors to implement Intralox's exclusive Activated Roller Belt technology in its operations.
"We're appreciative of this recognition, and we're proud of our Tyson account team, but we're not going to dwell on the success. We are currently developing several products and services that may generate big productivity gains for Tyson in the future. That's what Tyson expects from us," said Edel Blanks, General Manager of Intralox.
