Supply Chain Group (consisting of Chainresult and Supply Chain Company) and More Optimal today announced their merger, creating a powerful partner to deliver comprehensive end-to-end supply chain solutions.  

More Optimal has established itself as a trusted technology partner for companies aiming to make smarter and faster planning and optimization decisions across supply chain and operations.  

Combining forces 
By bringing together advisory expertise, implementation experience, and advanced optimization technology, the company offers clients a unique combination: broader expertise through one integrated approach, the ability to realize larger and more impactful projects, and the strength of a trusted partner with decades of experience and global reach. 

“This merger is an important milestone for all of us” said Olav Pannenborg, CEO of Supply Chain Group. “By combining our strengths with More Optimal and our long lasting existing strategic partnership with RELEX, we can offer clients a complete, end-to-end solution — from advisory and implementation through to advanced optimization technology. Together, we’re not only growing in size, but in impact, capabilities, and opportunities.” 

With a shared commitment to innovation and practical results, the merger unites teams from Chainresult, More Optimal, and Supply Chain Company under one roof. “This merger enables us to accelerate our vision” said Coen and Anko, founders of More Optimal. “Our technology and expertise empowers clients to optimize their supply chains in an accessible and powerful way. By joining forces with Supply Chain Group, we can not only expand our international reach, but also give even more strength and support to our external implementation partners. Together, we can help them deliver greater impact for clients while staying true to our entrepreneurial roots.” 

Backed by Holland Capital, the major investor in Supply Chain Group, the merger strengthens the combined company’s ability to deliver scalable and future-ready solutions. This enables them to address the increasing  complexity of global supply chains. “This partnership underlines our commitment to creating leading players in attractive growth markets. We are highly enthusiastic about the solution More Optimal brings and together with Supply Chain Group, we see a strong foundation for continued international growth and innovation in the supply chain domain.” says Maarten Snijders, Investment Director at Holland Capital.
