LLamasoft opens German office as it grows in Ann Arbor

Wednesday, July 1, 2009 | Source: Concentrate
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes... LLamasoft just opened a new office in Germany and is getting ready to move into new digs in downtown Ann Arbor.

The Ann Arbor-based supply-chain network designer opened an office in Munich to head up its European operations. One person will staff it for the time being.

"The mindset for logistics has been centered in Germany," says Gary Bobalik, director of marketing for LLamasoft.

LLamasoft was recently named as one of the Edward Lowe Foundation's "Michigan 50 Companies to Watch" and is working on the USAID/DELIVER PROJECT to increase the availability of essential health supplies around the world. It employs about 20 people and and has an office in Asia. It’s looking at moving into new and bigger space in Ann Arbor to accommodate its growth.

LLamasoft provides software to design and modify supply chain network designs, allowing companies to optimize their supply chain operations for profit and shrinking carbon footprints. The privately-held company was founded in 1998. Its clients include big name corporations, such as ConocoPhillips, Dell and J. C. Penney.
