About Markus Handorfer

Investing in Industry 4.0 tech can be a risky endeavour for many businesses. While the potential benefits of automation, data analytics, and interconnected systems are substantial, there are substantial risks to consider. The rapid pace of technological advancements means that what is cutting-edge today may become obsolete tomorrow, requiring ongoing investments to stay competitive. For many, funding this via traditional means is just too risky. At DLL, we’re here to help. With more than EURO 40 billion in assets, DLL partners with equipment manufacturers, end-users 3PL/4PL companies, consultants and integrators in more than 25 countries to enhance their supply chain processes and help grow their business. We’re making Industry 4.0 possible with innovative financial solutions that allow logistics companies to invest in the equipment they need when they need it, without tying up lines of credit. As an Intralogistics Account Manager, I help end-users access the latest state-of-the-art infrastructure, systems, and resources they need to innovate and grow their businesses, by providing creative financial solutions that remove the risks associated with upgrading warehouse equipment and drive down the cost of operation. One of the biggest obstacles a company will face when investing into automation are the significant upfront payments during the build process, draining it of vital capital with no immediate return. With DLL, repayments only begin when the equipment is fully operational and either generating income or saving costs. For me, DLL offers the missing part of the puzzle. Having worked as a systems integrator for a leading intralogistics provider for many years, I know first-hand just how hard it can be to fund projects, especially as not all costs associated with the design and build are covered by typical lenders. Not only do DLL solve this, but we are also committed to sustainability around the entire asset life cycle. We recognise new technologies often have shorter lifecycles, so we make it possible for customers to upgrade equipment without penalty, If you would like to speak to me about our solutions, I invite you to connect, call me on +49 (0) 170 223 68 59 or email markus.handorfer@dllgroup.com
