Une start-up suisse spécialisée dans la logistique de transport lève 1,35 million de francs

Arviem, une start-up zougoise spécialisée dans les services de monitoring pour le transport cargo a bouclé un tour d’investissement d’1,35 million. Parmi les investisseurs, l’on retrouve Swisscom Venture et la ZKB.
Pour poursuivre son développement, la start-up de Baar Arviem, spécialiste du monitoring de transport de marchandise en temps réel, a levé 1,35 million de francs suisses, annonce le site spécialisé Startupticker.ch. Elle a fait appel à la plateforme d’investissement destinée aux start-up Investiere pour mener son tour. La moitié des fonds a été levée auprès de business angels privés issus de la communauté Investiere. L’autre est promise par Swisscom Ventures et la banque cantonale zurichoise. Investiere a même dû refuser des investisseurs, et s’est basé sur leur philosophie pour trier les candidats: «Notre politique veut que les start-ups aient accès aux meilleurs investisseurs, par forcément les plus riches», explique Steffen Wagner, co-fondateur de la plateforme, cité par Startupticker.ch.
Cette injection d’argent frais devrait permettre à Arviem de réaliser un chiffre d’affaire positif cette année et d’investir dans l’analyse de données, son cœur de métier. «Nous allons également élargir notre offre de prestations avec nos logiciels de monitoring, et nous renforcer dans la vente», explique à notre rédaction Stefan Reidy, CEO.

La start-up compte déjà parmi ses clients Nestlé et Baccardi. «Nous existons depuis 2008, et nous nous sommes toujours financés nous-mêmes jusqu’à présent. Nous arrivons à un point où il nous faut grandir, et nous avions besoin d’argent», poursuit le CEO.
La solution d’Arviem, qui compte six employés et une vingtaine de personnes «outsourcées», offre un service de monitoring de la chaîne d’approvisionnement, qui permet de recevoir en temps réel des données et analyses sur leurs chargements, facilitant la prise de décision et réduisant les coûts.

Networked Supply Chains Require Better Visibility

As manufactures and retailers increasingly depend on extended rosters of sourcing companies, the resulting networked supply chain requires improved visibility. Importers are using multiple sourcing vendors to improve their ability to respond to market demand and opportunities. With this increased sourcing agility comes the increased risk of delivery failure due to a supply chain disruption and, concurrently, the increased importance of visibility into each step of the supply chain. The ability to in real time identify the location and status of the sourced goods gives the importer the ability to fine tune its distribution channels, its inventory management and its ability to fulfill commitments to its end users. The ability to real time monitor the status of goods requires a combination of container based technology, back-end business applications and an extended network of logistics fulfillment partners. In response to this emerging demand, many companies are offering RFID, GSM and si...

Embracing Chaos: The Key to Antifragile Global Supply Chains

  Introduction In the intricate dance of our global economy, supply chains serve as the connective tissue between producers and consumers. Yet, these sprawling networks are far from simple. In an unexpected twist, injecting a dose of controlled chaos into supply chains can enhance its efficiency. Resilience vs. Antifragility: A Paradigm Shift Resilience is the ability to rebound from adversity. On the other hand, antifragility is a concept that transcends mere survival; it's about thriving in the face of chaos, learning, and evolving through experience. In simpler terms, resilience is about weathering storms, while antifragility is about harnessing those storms to become more robust and adaptable. It's the ability to survive unpredictability and flourish because of it. Crafting an Antifragile Supply Chain So, how do you make a supply chain antifragile? The answer is deceptively straightforward: introduce calculated chaos. Deliberately subjecting the supply chain to controlled s...
