The Söderberg Trade Prize of SEK 500,000 was awarded in cooperation with the Swedish Trade Federation and the Stockholm School of Economics between 1988 and 2013.

The prize was awarded both to those who, through research, had made significant contributions to the development of distribution and marketing and to those who, through innovative thinking and business acumen, had developed a sound business concept or improved the efficiency of goods handling. Efforts to raise the status of commerce could also be considered. The prize could also be awarded to a person such as a representative of a company who has developed projects of significant importance for the development of distribution and marketing.

The winner was given the opportunity to put together a symposium in conjunction with the award ceremony.
