The company’s global headquarters will support its operations in 27 countries and more than 7,000 employees across the globe. With a long history in Metro Atlanta, Dematic employs more than 100 people in several locations including Peachtree Corners and Griffin, state officials said.
“Technology is at the core of what we do,” said Hasan Dandashly, Dematic President & CEO. “We are the leading supplier and partner in the advanced automated logistics and materials handling industry. Our solutions combine the latest advancements in software, robotics and mechatronics to drive optimal performance for our customers. Innovation has enabled us to be a market leader through the first three industrial revolutions. Establishing our headquarters in Atlanta reflects our commitment to remaining a world leader in technology and innovation in the supply chain solution space through industry 4.0.”
“I am very pleased to welcome Dematic to Atlanta,” said Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. “The world-class talent coming out of our universities and technology assets Midtown offers continue to make the City of Atlanta a top choice for global technology companies to locate their business. The more than 230 jobs created through this move will provide new economic opportunities for more Atlantans.”
“Dematic’s decision to invest in Atlanta reflects the ongoing strength of our supply chain and tech community,” said Hala Moddelmog, President & CEO of the Metro Atlanta Chamber. “Our region’s logistics infrastructure and digital supply chain focus are among the many assets that make metro Atlanta the #SupplyChainCity and an attractive choice for technology leaders like Dematic.”
“Our dynamic, pro-business environment is one of the reasons that Georgia is so successful in attracting innovative companies like Dematic,” said Governor Brian Kemp. “By providing businesses with world-class talent, accessibility to global markets, and broadband infrastructure, our state will continue to be a leader in attracting and supporting tech companies.”
“We are excited to welcome Dematic to the heart of Midtown Atlanta in the brand new CODA building,” said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson. “Dematic’s commitment to Georgia has been steadfast, and I am confident that their partnership with Georgia Tech and their Supply Chain Innovation Network will allow them to thrive here in Technology Square.”
“We have partnered with Dematic for many years,” said Tim Brown, Managing Director, Georgia Tech Supply Chain and Logistics Institute. “We are excited to have them as a neighbor with a long-term investment to grow here along with Georgia Tech’s Supply Chain and Logistics Institute. I look forward to our continued partnership in driving innovations in supply chain and intralogistics technologies.”
