Avedis Boudakian, CEO of Bunker, was recognized at the Top Management Awards

At Bunker, we believe leadership is built through vision, consistency, and the ability to transform industries. That is why we are proud to share that Avedis Boudakian, CEO of Bunker, was honored in Puerto Rico at SME’s Top Management Awards, one of the most prestigious business recognitions in the Caribbean, a region where Bunker has operated for the past five years.

The award was presented as part of SME Puerto Rico’s 75th anniversary gala, held on March 18, 2026, an event that brought together leaders from the worlds of business, marketing, sales, and innovation to recognize high-impact career achievements.

The Award Category

The recognition was awarded in the Technology category, one of the longstanding categories associated with the Top Management Awards. In its official calls for nominations, SME has explained that the nomination process covers a range of disciplines, including Technology, along with other areas across the business and corporate ecosystem.

A Recognition That Also Speaks to Bunker

The award presented to Avedis Boudakian recognizes a distinctive way of leading, one that builds business through the combination of strategic thinking, applied innovation, and a deep understanding of the value marketing science can create for brands.

At a time when organizations increasingly need precision, evidence, and adaptability, this recognition confirms something we experience every day at Bunker: leadership is not only about growth, but also about raising the standard of an entire industry.

The distinction granted by SME highlights exactly that: the ability to create sustained impact, drive transformation, and represent one’s sector with excellence.

A Milestone That Inspires Us to Keep Building

This recognition comes at an important moment for Bunker. As a company, we continue to deepen our mission of turning the complexity of marketing into smarter, measurable, and actionable decisions.

Being recognized on a stage such as SME Puerto Rico’s Top Management Awards is also a sign that the path we have built holds regional relevance, and that the work we do from Latin America now stands shoulder to shoulder with the highest standards in the industry.

We celebrate this achievement with pride, gratitude, and, above all, with the conviction that the most meaningful recognitions are those that inspire us to keep building.
