Logsta and Ancla Logistics cooperate

The companies are aiming for nothing less than to become Europe's leading provider of logistics services in the direct-to-consumer sector.

The start-ups Logsta and Ancla Logistik are merging. With nine locations in five countries, the aim is to become "Europe's leading provider of logistics services for D2C", according to a corresponding press release. To this end, the warehouses' IT infrastructures will be merged in the coming weeks. The company is currently represented in France, the UK, the USA, Germany and Austria. In future, Packangels would have 1,000 customers with over 900 employees. In future, there will be three brands that belong together: In addition to Logsta and Ancla Logistik, this also includes Packangels, which was already part of Ancla Logistik before.

"By integrating Ancla and Logsta, we can significantly expand our range of services in the field of technology," says Christoph Maas, founder of Ancla Logistik GmbH. "Both companies have set themselves the goal of also being able to offer small e-commerce brands professional logistics," says Georg Weiß, one of the founders of Logsta. He went on to explain that the merger of the two companies would also allow the range of services to be expanded in order to better meet the individual requirements of customers.

Ancla Logistik would gradually handle more volumes and omnichannel services, while Wiener Neustadt's Logsta would primarily present itself as a cost-effective alternative for start-ups and SMEs.
