Dematic Europe GmbH was named "Best international logistics company" at the start of June during the official launch celebrations for the 13th International Logistics and Material Handling trade fair "Salón International de la Logística" (SIL) in Barcelona. This award represents the panel’s recognition of the commitment and level of success of the intralogistics specialist in the Spanish market. The prize was accepted at the award ceremony by Mike Gonzales, CEO of Dematic Europe, and Manuel Munoz, Country Manager, Spain. "Dematic has had a presence in Europe since 1930 and is able to cite a number of heavyweight references in this important market, in all key sectors", was Gonzales’ comment on the award.
