Forterro expands UK footprint with OrderWise buy

Forterro has ‘significantly’ expanded its UK footprint with the acquisition of Wise Software (OrderWise), its second deal in the region following its buyout of 123insight a year ago.

The deal will add £18m in revenue to Forterro Group and see OrderWise founder David Hallam depart from the business.

Forterro CEO Dean Forbes said: “We warmly welcome OrderWise, its people and customers. OrderWise and its products are a perfect fit with the Forterro vision."

Richard Furby, President of Forterro Northern Europe and group M&A, added: “OrderWise has a core strength in the UK warehousing and distribution spaces, which when added to our acquisition last year of DACH-focused myfactory, means we now serve the needs of over 5,000 European customers in these two niches alone.”
