JOHANNESBURG – THE MTN Group has awarded Huawei the Supplier of the Year and Best Innovation 2018 Awards at a recently-concluded Annual Supplier Award Ceremony in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates capital.
The Supplier of the Year Award recognises the best overall performance from a group supplier across several performance metrics such as quality, delivery and support, account performance management, innovation and meeting MTN compliance and risk requirements.
The Best Innovation Award focuses on suppliers who demonstrated and shared best practice, market insights and generated the most innovative ideas and solutions.
