proLogistics

In the beginning there was a vision

Innovation paired with tradition

In the beginning there was a vision. A handful of young engineers wanted to transmit information in the field of logistics wirelessly via infrared and no longer on paper, thus ensuring a fast and smooth flow of materials. The vision matured into a business concept that eventually became reality and has continued to grow ever since. We implement innovative system solutions in the field of warehouse management and material flow control and today support over 2000 installations worldwide with more than 500 employees.

Our capital is our highly motivated employees, because only years of experience in the implementation of logistical requirements in practical solutions make us a high-performance partner of renowned companies. They live growth processes, permanent innovation and uncompromising customer orientation with us. In increasingly fast-paced times, we continue to focus on consistency and a trusting partnership with our customers that extends far beyond the initial installation.
