President, Rodney Greenup, attributes Greenup's recognition to his employees who worked together to overcome the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.

BATON ROUGE , LA, UNITED STATES , November 1, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- At its Gateway 2021 Virtual Conference and Tradeshow held on August 25-27, 2021, the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) awarded Greenup Industries its "Supplier of the Year" Award for the Class 3 category. Earning its reputation as a trusted solutions provider and partner in the industrial services business, Greenup has excelled at providing professional, specialized services and procurement support to its diverse clientele for over a decade.

Rodney Greenup, President of Greenup Industries, thanked the Southern Region Minority Supplier Development Council (SRMSDC) board and members for its nomination. "Given the challenges we've all faced with the COVID 19 pandemic, this is a great pick-me-up. My employees work extremely hard every day, and I want to thank them for all the hard work that they do. I also want to encourage all my fellow members in the NMSDC to listen to one another, to learn from one another, because we're all going to be stronger together as we go through this challenging time," he says.

Greenup Industries, a third-party solution provider, was affected by the two-pronged crisis affecting the oil and gas industry – the impact of the pandemic and the oil price war. When existing projects were delayed, Greenup looked to the SRMSDC for resources on finding new business. In 2019, under Greenup's leadership, the company expanded into construction and other industries and city, parish, state, and federal government work.

The SRMSDC specializes in facilitating new and existing sourcing opportunities from corporate members to certified minority-owned businesses also offers advocacy and business development services.
