SAINT OUEN L’AUMÔNE, France and LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., March 1, 2023 — Staci, Europe’s leading multichannel fulfillment provider, has completed the acquisition of Amware Fulfillment LLC, a top provider of direct-to-consumer, order fulfillment services with 15 facilities across the U.S. Both companies are privately held. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The combined company gives growing brands a powerful multichannel fulfillment solution across North America and Europe, with 81 fulfillment centers (9.8 million square feet), including 18 facilities in the U.S. and 63 across France, Belgium, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Spain.
Staci’s primary investment partner is Ardian, which acquired a majority stake in the company in 2019. Amware’s primary investment partner was Rotunda Capital Partners, which acquired a majority stake in the company in 2014.
In the U.S., the company will continue to operate as Amware Fulfillment and Staci’s three U.S. facilities (Jersey City, NJ, Memphis, TN and Reno, NV) will become part of a combined USA fulfillment network. Amware’s current leadership team will remain in place led by CEO, Harry Drajpuch. He will report to Nicolas Morisse, CEO of Eurodislog and Chairman of Staci US Corp.
“The acquisition of Amware gives us a powerful ecommerce order fulfillment capability in the important U.S. market and expands our global fulfillment platform,” said Staci Group CEO, Thomas Mortier. “Amware’s network of multi-client fulfillment centers aligns perfectly with Staci’s model of offering growing brands a flexible, pay-as-you-go logistics solution that scales quickly and economically to match revenue growth.”
“In the current market for fulfillment services, it’s rare to find a provider that combines significant size and scale with a more personalized, collaborative approach to solution design,” said Harry Drajpuch, CEO of Amware. “That’s the unique value the Staci-Amware union brings – robust, high-volume fulfillment and parcel shipping solutions that are also highly customized.”
