 This strategic acquisition creates a supply chain & logistics powerhouse that advises clients from A to Z; from production chain and investment strategy to design, delivery and control of factory and warehouse.

Manufacturers, distributors and supporting organisations see increasing challenges and opportunities in their chain from raw material to consumer, such as scarcity, changing consumer demands, sustainability and digitalisation.

We are very excited to welcome the Districon team. Together we can be even more effective in helping clients worldwide to design, organise and manage their entire chain in a sustainable, flexible and efficient way – using the latest digital technology.
