Körber acquires Centriq, a leading provider of voice-directed warehousing and modeling solutions (part 1) |
|
| Hamburg/Blackpool, 21 June, 2018 (APA/OTS) - Transaction covers Centriq Group Ltd., including its voice solution business Voiteq and modeling and simulation business Cirrus Logistics - Acquisition establishes Körber's Business Area Logistics Systems as leading company for implementation of voice technology in logistics - Centriq provides Körber with strong market presence in the UK as the basis to grow internationally |
With the acquisition of Centriq Group Ltd., the international
technology group Körber reinforces its Business Area Logistics
Systems. The acquisition has been completed as of June 20, 2018.
Through its business Voiteq, Centriq is a leading provider of
solutions and services related to logistics, in particular focusing
on the voice solution market. Voiteq provides voice software
solutions and services with its product "VoiceMan". Centriq's Cirrus
Logistics subsidiary supplies software and services that use
advanced optimization and simulation techniques to develop and
execute supply chain strategies. Additionally, Centriq offers
services for their products: among others voice-as-a-service
subscription, supply chain consulting, implementation and
integration or logistics hardware consulting, design and site
surveys. Main customers for Centriq's products come from the food &
beverage, retail, and third party logistics (3PL) industries.
This acquisition complements Körber's existing strong North
American voice business, Vitech Business Group, and creates one of
the world's largest and most experienced Honeywell Vocollect voice
integration teams. The combined organization offers local and global
customers the widest range of proven products and services to enable
them to gain the substantial benefits of voice-directed work. "With
the successful acquisition of Centriq we have added another key
component to our logistics portfolio. Its excellent team will enable
us to strengthen our internationally leading position in the SCM
segment with access to multinational project opportunities",
emphasizes Stephan Seifert, Chairman of the Group Executive Board at
Körber AG. "Moreover, we will bring added value to our existing and
future customers as we will be able to offer a more comprehensive
product and service portfolio on a global scale."
Hubert Kloß, CEO of the Körber Business Area Logistics Systems,
adds: "Growth in
e-commerce and changing customer demands are putting a strain on
supply chains and driving a trend toward continuous process
improvements. Centriq is a major international player for products
that enable higher efficiency in warehousing with direct delivery
capability into global blue-chip organizations. The voice solutions
of Voiteq for example keep workers' hands and eyes free, improving
comfort, productivity and accuracy. This addition to our Business
Area will establish Körber Logistics Systems as one of the globally
leading suppliers of voice technology in logistics."
David Stanhope, CEO of Centriq Group, Ltd., says: "Speaking on
behalf of the whole management team at Centriq, we are very excited
about joining the successful Logistics Systems Business Area and the
Körber Group as a whole. For our team of technical experts that
serves some 300 clients at 500 sites with award-winning products
already, the prospect of joint further growth comes at the right
time." He further explains: "We estimate that more than 90% of
warehouses across the world are yet to adopt voice technology.
Together with the existing SCM portfolio of Körber Logistics
Systems, we will be able to strengthen our international platform
and - thanks to the integrated offerings portfolio - provide more
benefits for our customers."
