Garmin has been named the 2022 “Best of the Best” Supplier by Embraer at its Suppliers Conference in Campos do Jordão, Brazil. Additionally, Garmin was recognised as the top supplier in both the Systems and Services and Support categories for its G3000 Prodigy Touch flight deck systems in the Phenom 100EV and Phenom 300E.

This annual award program honors an elite group of suppliers for their outstanding performance, continuous improvement and increased customer satisfaction among all suppliers who serve Embraer's global commercial aviation, business aviation and defense markets.

“It's an honor to be recognised by Embraer with these prestigious supplier awards, including the first 'Best of the Best' in the company's history,” says Phil Straub, Garmin Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Aviation. "These accolades are a testament to Garmin's commitment to Embraer and our mutual customers around the world, and we are honoured by the confidence they have entrusted in us as we strive to deliver the most innovative flight deck solutions backed by the best support in the industry."

Embraer's supplier awards recognise Garmin's design innovation, ease of use and overall system architecture, as well as outstanding efforts in production line support, quality, and on-time reliability of the supply chain. These accolades validate Garmin's achievement in designing and manufacturing state-of-the-art flight deck systems, while remaining responsive to market needs and preferences.

This is the eighth consecutive year Garmin has received a supplier award from Embraer. Over the past 13 years, Embraer has presented Garmin with 15 honors across various categories, including: Electric and Electronics Systems, Technical Support to Operators, Electro-Mechanical Systems, Material Support to Operator, Systems, Services and Support, and Best of the Best.
