The MACH Alliance, a not-for-profit industry body dedicated to advocating for open, best-of-breed technology ecosystems, has revealed the winners of its fourth annual MACH Impact Awards, with Sephora and FLEETLOOP earning the coveted Grand Prix honors. The awards program capped off the second night of The Composable Conference 2025, the organization’s global annual event, held April 22-24 in Chicago.

“FLEETLOOP epitomizes my definition of a digital experience winner,” said Miya Knights, Impact Awards co-chair and director and publisher of Retail Technology Magazine. “The company disrupted its industry, slashed costs, and delivered rapid, end-to-end innovation that seamlessly marries an outstanding customer front end with efficient operational back-end systems.”

“Sephora is a standout winner for me,” said Justin Thomas, Impact Awards co-chair and global head of digital experience and growth at Kraft Heinz. “The scale, complexity, and risk of what they achieved behind the scenes is immense, and they delivered it all at the level of a global brand with massive infrastructure demands.”
