<strong>LB</strong>. Since the company had its origins in logistics<br />
and still includes a capable logistics service<br />
provi<strong>der</strong> in Germany with the WM GROUP, it<br />
is obvious that the <strong>LB</strong> is a member of the LOG-<br />
IT Club, the sponsoring organisation of the<br />
logistics cluster NRW. "An engaging exchange<br />
amongst logisticians, from which all sides can<br />
only profit, always takes place there. The aim<br />
of this cluster is to turn North Rhine-Westphalia<br />
into the logistics location number 1,"<br />
Meyer explains. The two also regularly attend<br />
trade shows and roadshows - multidisciplinary<br />
and therefore with an eye on all divisions. "We<br />
try to always represent the extensive portfolio<br />
of our group, give talks and speak about the<br />
group."<br />
Acquiring new customers and looking for<br />
new partners<br />
The acquisition of new customers and looking for new partners are some of the duties of central distribution<br />
Meyer and Mass currently look after several<br />
customers who are interested in the topic logistics<br />
mall. Meyer says: "We advise everybody:<br />
the smaller customer who is only interested<br />
in the area of eCommerce as well as the big<br />
transport service provi<strong>der</strong>s who want to use<br />
the mall extensively." There are also customers<br />
who might want to handle their logistics<br />
through <strong>LB</strong> GmbH and are currently in a kind<br />
of partnership - also in the area of the mall<br />
by Logata. As an illustration, Logata's Björn<br />
Renzel demonstrated the logistics mall live.<br />
With the help of the Process Designer, the user<br />
can now utilise several products in the mall.<br />
"From now on, communication between the<br />
individual apps is also possible. Together with<br />
the customer, we create completely individual<br />
processes to suit the customer's requirements,"<br />
Björn Renzel explains. For instance, stock<br />
receipt, testing of certain, pre-determined<br />
characteristics and storage are examples from<br />
logistics. "In principle, this model can be used<br />
for all industries," according to Renzel. This is<br />
why the mall is so interesting for central distribution.<br />
A large number of talks have already<br />
been organised for the second quarter of the<br />
year in which Michael Maas and Dirk Meyer<br />
will introduce the products of the <strong>LB</strong> GmbH.<br />
"Going for it with motivation"<br />
"An event like the Kick-off is immensely<br />
valuable for us. We learn even more about<br />
the products of the group and we also get the<br />
chance to connect faces to individual divisions<br />
and products. That is really nice", Dirk Meyer<br />
declares. You shouldn't hesitate to talk to the<br />
two gentlemen if you have questions, suggestions<br />
or ideas. "We are always motivated when<br />
approaching things and want to convey this as<br />
well.“ ◀<br />
