Casella Earns Recognition as One of Cornell University's Top Suppliers
October 07 2013 - 4:34PM
Casella Waste Systems, Inc., a regional solid waste, recycling and
resource solutions company, said today that the company has been
formally recognized as one of Cornell University's top suppliers at
the university's second annual Cornell Supplier Recognition Awards.
"We value our relationship with Cornell, and having the
opportunity to help the university reach its sustainability goals,"
John W. Casella, chairman and CEO of Casella Waste Systems, Inc.,
said. "This award validates the collaboration between our team and
Cornell's to create sustainable infrastructure while managing waste
out of the system."
The company said it has spent the last twelve months on the
Cornell campus evaluating the school's waste and recycling
infrastructure and service levels, and redesigned the system to
promote recycling – utilizing Casella's all-in-one-bin Zero-Sort®
recycling service – and substantially reducing the university's
overall waste management costs.
"Casella is more than a supplier to the university," Suzanne
Willcox, Strategic Sourcing Manager at Cornell, said. "They are a
valued partner in our work to build a greener and more efficient
campus."
The Cornell Supplier Recognition Awards spotlights suppliers who
have performed best throughout the year in product and service
quality, pricing, order fulfillment, customer satisfaction and
social responsibility. On-campus customers evaluate supplier
performance through a customer satisfaction survey. Cornell is the
first university to recognize suppliers in this way.
Casella received the highest possible scores in each
category.
Casella has developed broad expertise in a number of waste,
recycling and resource solutions to help colleges and universities
(and other institutions) manage costs while building "greener"
campuses. The company currently serves over 70 colleges and
universities throughout the northeastern U.S.
