General Motors recognized 68 of its best global automotive suppliers during its 22nd annual Supplier of the Year awards ceremony.

"Our suppliers play animportant role in helping GM deliver compelling vehicles to our customers," said Grace Lieblein, GM

In addition to presenting its Supplier of the Year awards, GM also honored four suppliers with its Overdrive Award, recognizing suppliers who have undertaken extraordinary initiatives and driven exceptional results for GM's business.

"The Overdrive Awardis given to those world-class suppliers that have gone above and beyond," Lieblein added. "Each has met the demands of our business, while at the same time demonstrating values important to GM and our communities."
