80 years of automated material flow solutions for industrial and logistics companies
More than 10,000 projects, branches and contractual partners in 23 countries and over 8,600 employees - that is DAIFUKU's anniversary record. The company has been offering its customers versatile intralogistics solutions for 80 years. Just in time for the anniversary, DAIFUKU published its medium-term business plan "Value Innovation 2020", with which the company aims to become the global market leader in the field of conveyor technology. The aim is to use new technologies and offer solutions that increase both system quality and customer benefits.
DAIFUKU was founded in 1937 and has developed into the world's leading supplier of automated conveyor systems. Since 1989, the company has also been offering intralogistics solutions tailored to its customers in Europe. These include factory and distribution automation solutions (FA&DA), baggage handling systems and various solutions for airports (ATec), material flow solutions for clean rooms (eFA) and systems for production lines in the automotive industry (AFA).
As part of the new business plan, DAIFUKU will continue to pursue its goal of achieving sustainable growth and offering intelligent logistics solutions. In doing so, the company aims to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving logistics industry, which are also significantly influencing and changing the e-commerce market. "With our intralogistics concepts for the rapid processing of small orders, we are strengthening the competitiveness of companies in this sector," explains Thomas Balluff, Branch Manager FA&DA Europe at DAIFUKU. "With 'Value Innovation 2020', we are driving further innovations for online retail in the coming years."
