INDIANAPOLIS, IN, Mar. 24, 2025 — Three supply chain veterans who have had a significant impact on the last-mile sector were recently honored by the Customized Logistics & Delivery Association. Errol Cvern, Mark Cossack and the late Randy Edmonds were recognized at the CLDA’s Final Mile Forum in San Diego.
Cvern was inducted into the CLDA Hall of Fame at the meeting. He is the retired CFO & President of Select Express & Logistics (now AIT Worldwide Logistics). He has been a part of the CLDA since 1988 and served on the association’s Executive Committee, Board of Directors and the Advocacy, Finance and Fall Conference committees. In presenting the award, former CLDA president John Benko said, “The Hall of Fame Award is our highest honor. It goes beyond service to CLDA. It recognizes those who have shaped the final-mile industry as a whole. Errol has positively influenced a great many members. Although retired, he continues volunteering on the Finance Committee to help maintain and strengthen CLDA’s financial reserves.”
Mark Cossack received the CLDA’s Distinguished Service Award at the Final Mile Forum. Cossak is CEO at Priority Courier Experts, a CLDA Board member for 14 years, and has headed the association’s Government Affairs Committee for 11 years. In presenting the award, CLDA’s President-Elect Lorena Camargo said, “CLDA’s Distinguished Service Award is not given lightly. It recognizes individuals who have demonstrated unwavering commitment and extraordinary service to the association and the industry. Advocacy is one of the most important ways CLDA serves its members. The policies and regulations shaping our industry today will impact us for years to come. That’s why we’re actively engaging with legislators and regulators, making sure they understand the challenges we face and the value we provide. Mark is a leader who is passionate about government affairs and advocacy on behalf of CLDA and the industry. He is dedicated to ensuring our issues are at the top of everyone’s mind at every decision, meeting, and event. Without his leadership, we would not be recognized as one of the key organizations fighting on your behalf.”
Randy Edmonds also received the CLDA’s Distinguished Service Award posthumously. Before passing away in 2024, he was Executive Vice President of ADL Final Mile. His wife, Unna and daughter, Ashley, accepted the award in his honor. Randy was a former board member of the CLDA, head of the association’s
Shipper Committee for many years and a key association member for over 25 years. In presenting the award, Camargo said, “He was not just a leader in our industry but a mentor, a friend, and a force for good. Randy’s impact on CLDA and the final-mile community is immeasurable. His passion, dedication, and willingness to support others left a lasting legacy.”
