Ground Support Worldwide recognizes the company for implementing new resources and technologies for its frontline employees

ATLANTA, May 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Unifi Aviation is recognized as 2023 Service Leader of the Year by Ground Support Worldwide magazine, the leading publication for the aviation ground support community around the globe.

Unifi was awarded for transforming the company in less than two years by establishing a new employee culture and technologies to provide airlines with a full range of ground handling services, above and below wing. Peers and thought leaders from the industry nominate award recipients, and the magazine's judging panel evaluates all candidates based on merit and accomplishments.

"I'm delighted to accept this award on behalf of everyone at Unifi," said Gautam Thakkar, Unifi, Chief Executive Officer. "Our frontline employees are the best at what they do – delivering exceptional service to our customers and travelers. Ensuring they have the right tools and technologies to do their jobs is extremely important for us, so to be recognized for that is especially significant."

Ground Support Worldwide began its Leader of the Year program in 2005 to recognize those in the industry paving the way – from aviation service providers to GSE (Ground Support Equipment) manufacturers. In 2008, it was expanded, according to the outlet, "to shine a light on the best people and workplaces within the ground support world."

In addition to Ground Support Worldwide magazine, the brand also delivers the largest GSE trade show, bi-annually, in Las Vegas, the International GSE Expo, which offers a first-hand look at the latest advancements in technology, products, and equipment.
