CMOY Submission Information

Retailer, supplier and wholesale partners can submit their nominations for the industry’s best category managers via this year’s CMOY Nomination Form through Dec. 13.

After nominations close, the six finalists in each category with the most votes, three finalists for smaller chains and three finalists for larger chains, will move on to the final round of voting. CSP editors will vet the finalists before moving on to the final round. Voting for winners will be open in January. Only supplier partners may cast votes for this round—not retailers. There will be two winners for each category, determined by who receives the most votes for retailers with 99 stores or fewer and retailers with 100 or more stores. CSP editors will review the votes to make sure the winners are in the appropriate category and store-count range.
