Staci Group, a leading multichannel fulfillment platform, has closed the acquisition of Amware Fulfillment, a US fulfillment company providing omni-channel and customized logistics solutions to direct-to-consumer, e-commerce and retail businesses. With this acquisition, Staci reaches a critical size in the United States where the group settled back in March 2019, with the opening of a first warehouse in Jersey City.
Expanding its US footprint is at the core of Staci’s strategy. Following Amware’s acquisition, Staci’s US branch will now be able to reach 98% of the US territory in 2 days via ground transportation, relying on its 800+ employees and 18 strategically located warehouses for a total of 2,400k+ square feet. On top of expanding geographically Staci’s reach, Amware will also allow Staci to keep developing its presence in e-commerce logistics and to keep strengthening in dynamic verticals such as the Health & Wellness.
The combined group will represent €740m ($790m) of revenues and will rely on a global network of 81 fulfillment centers, +4,000 employees, a stronger exposure to high-growing end markets as well as reinforced omnichannel capabilities. The United States is now the group’s leading geography with approximately 30% of revenues.
Staci Group is an independent and flexible international logistics specialist. Staci has developed a wide range of innovative and tailor-made logistics services to address their customers’ evolving needs as well as the rise of multi-channel distribution. Staci is headquartered in Saint-Ouen-L’Aumône (France) and is controlled by Ardian, alongside the managers and Société Générale Capital Partenaires.
With the acquisition, Staci Group will replace Rotunda Capital Partners, which has been an investor in Amware Fulfillment since 2014.
Harry Drajpuch, CEO of Amware Fulfillment is thrilled with this new development “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. That’s the unique value the Staci-Amware union brings – robust, high-volume fulfillment and parcel shipping solutions that are also highly customized.”
Thomas Mortier, CEO of Staci Group is looking forward to expanding his organization: “We wish a warm welcome to the Amware team. The combination of our strengths and know-how is a fantastic opportunity to continue the development and growth of both companies in the USA with a network of warehouses that now enable us to cover the whole country from East to West.”

With the countdown to the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games already well underway, companies are getting their act together to be ready on D-day. Among the challenges they have to face, the question of logistics is a major one. How to store and then transport their products to the various sites, while respecting the specific constraints of the Games – deadlines, access authorisation, security – but above all the environmental, social and ethical requirements defined by the Olympic Committee?
As the European leader in promotional and event logistics for more than 30 years, Staci is fully aware of the problems associated with this type of event. This is why we have developed a dedicated offer for the Olympic Games with specific human, digital and organisational resources:
📦 Storage facilities close to the Olympic sites thanks to our 47 warehouses located in the Île de France and the regions.
🚛 Optimised transport solutions thanks to the strategic location of our sites and the grouping of flows.
🖥️ Web ordering tool allowing real-time stock monitoring, delivery tracking and event planning management.
🎁 Kitting in small series or large volume, for all types of audiences.
🌱 Eco-responsible means of delivery with clean vehicles and carbon compensation.
♻️ Optimisation of packaging with the use of recyclable and recycled materials.
🎯 Objective: to support brands, throughout France, in setting up event logistics with complete peace of mind, in order to make it a success and to take full advantage of this great moment of cohesion, integration and surpassing oneself!

Congratulations and thanks to our partner GLS France for this first full-scale test of electric transport, which was a resounding success: after e-commerce, we are well on the way to providing our customers with more sustainable transport solutions.
As part of the electrification of its fleet, GLS France carried out a week of parcel collection for Staci with a Volvo Trucks France e-truck.
A first in the Paris region! 👍

As an international Group 🌍 present in 8 countries, Staci must respect the rules of the countries where it operates, its communities and its environment. Appropriate ethical behaviour is a fundamental prerequisite for a healthy and efficient daily business environment.
➡️ We have developed our Code of Conduct to clearly state and respect our commitments as a company, an employer and a good corporate citizen on a daily basis. It is an essential tool to guide our choices in order to put our values and commitments into practice. ⬅️
Intended for all our employees, this guide is intended to help describe our position on :
🔹 The protection and use of the company’s assets
🔹 The fight against corruption, conflicts of interest, anti-competitive practices
🎯 Today, only companies with a strong ethical culture will be sustainable, which is why we want 100% of our employees to be trained in this approach by 2025.
