Gerber Technology , a global leader of integrated manufacturing platform, is celebrating 30 years of customer experience, innovation and growth in its European headquarters in Portugal.
Launched in 1990, Portugal has been the company’s headquarter for the European market and currently services more than 4,000 customers across the region.
The diverse customer base that relies on industry’s most cutting edge technologies has contributed to Gerber’s success in the European region. “Gerber is a partner that has well adapted to the reality of companies in Portugal, both in innovation and productivity,” said Francisco Batista, CEO of the CBI Group, a Gerber customer since 1997.
Gerber has helped the European brand, manufacturer and retailers with its cutting edge technologies like 2D/3D CAD, PLM and digital cutting.
Through the use of these tech solutions, the customers have been able to increase the interest of global brands, especially in the luxury sector that relies on more sophisticated and innovative products.
In these challenging times, the company is supporting the customers not only through its digital solution but is also helping them in their transformation journey of converting their supply chain to the production of personal protective equipment (PPE).
It is helping companies with resources and expertise for successful manufacturing of masks, face shields, gowns and more. The Gerber PPE Task Force has supported around 500 European companies pivot to PPE.
The company also aims to transform the manufacturing process from the traditional method through the use of hardware and software solutions that helps customers with enhanced production capabilities like on-demand, personalisation and made-to-measure. “The goal of our end-to-end solutions is to integrate data, processes and teamwork,” said Aguiar, adding “Currently, companies have several systems and tools to support their processes. Our goal is to help our customers digitalise their entire supply chain, allowing them to collaborate virtually more efficiently and profitably.”
