Pandemics, material shortages, and wars in the Middle East and Ukraine have changed the global economy and brought attention to the importance of effective supply chain management.
These incidents highlight the difficulties faced by businesses, which have an immediate impact on their output and profitability. In light of this, supply chain management systems must be implemented in order to provide the flexibility and reactivity needed to handle these circumstances.
Álvaro Bernabé, co-founder of Imperia, reflects on the new investment round: “We have seen how current challenges directly affect supply chains. Clear visibility of demand, along with effective planning of provisioning and production, is essential for survival and competitiveness in the market.”
Luis Garay, Partner at Samaipata, said: “Imperia is revolutionizing supply chain management software. At Samaipata, we firmly believe in the modular product strategy they have developed, and in a top-tier founding team that has achieved a lot with limited resources. Imperia is a clear example of a company that is growing quickly, but responsibly, thanks to a very solid product-market fit and textbook execution.”
The support Imperia has gotten from multinational clients who have incorporated our technology into their global operations is just as important as the backing from investors in this most recent fundraising round.
This includes growing into over eight nations, where well-known businesses like FAES Farma, Hine Group, and Aliaxis Group are putting our solution into practice in their subsidiaries, proving their faith in and dedication to Imperia's cutting-edge supply chain management solutions.
