Why It’s Worth Applying for the IFOY AWARD

A nomination for the IFOY finals brings companies measurable international visibility—as shown by the initial analysis of media coverage of the 2026 IFOY AWARD. As of July 31, 2026, 3,348 online articles had been counted across 1,441 media sources from 79 countries. The gross organic media reach is approximately 791 million impressions. Between 49 and 1,960 online articles were published about each of the finalists.

The media outlets covering the story include international news agencies and business media, as well as leading logistics trade publications. This is proof that a spot in the finals is recognized far beyond the logistics industry. And that’s just the preliminary tally: So far, only online submissions received by July 31 have been counted. The complete collection of press clippings, including print coverage from the jury’s media outlets, will be evaluated at the end of the year. The actual range is therefore likely to be significantly higher.

Double the Benefits for Applicants

A spot in the IFOY finals signifies two things: an independent quality assessment through the three-stage IFOY Audit, complete with certificates and test reports, and international visibility that can make an IFOY Finalist known worldwide overnight.
