By acquiring Dematic, a specialist for automation and supply chain optimisation, the KION Group has become a different, more diverse and more powerful group. We can now offer our customers around the world everything they need for their intralogistics – from basic hand pallet trucks to the most complex of automated material handling solutions – underpinned by what is probably the most extensive sales and service network in the industry worldwide. By offering a comprehensive portfolio from a single source, we are better placed than anyone else to help cus- tomers create value. That is why, now that Dematic has joined the KION family, we have also begun a new chapter for our industry. Our world is evolving rapidly and our industry is being shaken up. How we live, how we work – digitalisation is changing everything. When you order goods online, they usually arrive the next day or, more and more frequently, the same day. Cities are growing and people are starting to prefer using their local shops again instead of going to a mall. Warehouses are therefore being relocated to distribution centres. Thriving companies are those that have automation solutions with which they can meet the constantly changing needs of today’s and, above all, tomorrow’s consumers.
