GEAPS Opens Nominations for Industry Awards
Honorees Will Be Announced at GEAPS Exchange 2027
Nominations are open through Dec. 31 for the Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS) Awards, honoring individuals who go above and beyond in grain and grain processing industries.
Each year, GEAPS celebrates impactful people through the Member of Distinction and Industry Leader awards.
The Member of Distinction Award recognizes individuals who have demonstrated consistent volunteer leadership, strengthened our community, or helped GEAPS fulfill its mission. Eligible nominees must be GEAPS members (Regular, Associate, Affiliate or Lifetime) for at least five of the past 10 years.
The Industry Leader Award honors individuals who have significantly improved the state of the industry, from safety and efficiency to innovation and quality. This award is open to anyone, regardless of GEAPS membership status.
“The Member of Distinction and Industry Leader awards are about recognizing our colleagues for their contribution, dedication, and hard work in the grain and grain processing industries” said John Caupert, CEO of GEAPS. “GEAPS and the industries it serves cannot be successful without a foundation of amazing people who are doing incredible work. I’m humbled, as it’s an honor to work alongside the very people who feed, fuel and clothe the world.”
