February 12, 2018- Flat World Supply Chain is proud to announce that it is a finalist for the Arcus Award for Achievement in Logistics at the 5th annual Arcus Awards, hosted by the St. Louis Regional Chamber.


The Arcus Awards are presented to companies, organizations, and institutions that demonstrate exceptional commitment to leading the St. Louis region's authentic economic strengths and championing a better tomorrow for our region. These awards recognize companies and organizations that make the St. Louis region the best place to live, work, and invest.

Flat World Supply Chain is a part of the Flat World Holdings family of companies. Based in O'Fallon, Flat World Supply Chain has quickly grown to be a premier provider of supply chain management, technology, and other logistics services. The company was named one of the fastest-growing private companies in the St. Louis region and recently expanded into a new 30,000 square foot facility at the St. Louis Lambert International Airport for customized crating, warehousing, distribution and fulfillment. Flat World Supply Chain has also emphasized doing business with local vendors for various professional services, has been a consistent sponsor of the St. Charles County Demo Day, and regularly hosts fundraisers for local area charities. That commitment to community is a core part of Flat World's emphasis on a culture of excellence.

"We are so proud to be named an Arcus Award finalist," said co-founder and Managing Partner Kirk Ferrell. "While our operations and customer base stretch far beyond the St. Louis metro area, we are proud of the jobs we've created in this region and the lives our team has touched through its charitable work. More than anything, our management team and leadership are so proud of the dedication to excellence our team shows on a daily basis. We wouldn't receive recognition like this without its hard work on behalf of our customers and their community."
