In September last year, Cohesio was acquired by Körber Group. This strategic acquisition has helped us to accelerate to our next phase of growth and continue pushing the boundaries of what our people can deliver in the supply chain tech space. We have never stood still. Our team is uniquely suited to creating and delivering tailored supply chain technology and we have continued delivering transformative projects across
warehousing, logistics and retail. Our tech solutions have evolved from voice and mobility through to new generation Android Voice and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) offering a suite of enterprise-grade solutions that now tick the boxes of ease, rapid deployment, user readiness and cost-effectiveness, along with our support, solutiondesign and consultation capabilities for the best possible workflow optimisations. Our fundamental principles of flexibility and agility have enabled us to adapt and grow and we have now grown to become one of Asia Pacific’s leading automation and technology providers in the logistics and distribution space.
