Worximity Technology Raises $6.25 Million and Signs a Partnership with Marel, a Global Leader in High-Tech Food Processing

August 28, 2019 By admin Leave a Comment

Worximity Technology, a Montreal-based company focusing on Industry 4.0, announces a major new investment of $5 million by Marel, a leading global provider of advanced food processing equipment, systems, software and services to the poultry, meat and fish industries, and a renewed vote of confidence from its current investors in the form of an additional $1.25 million investment. This $6.25 million Series A financing will be used to increase the pace of development of technological innovations and to accelerate the conquest of international markets.

This major partnership with Marel was only natural. Before launching his company, Yannick Desmarais, CEO and founder of Worximity, was already working in the food processing industry, where he was responsible for the ongoing improvement of several factories and knew the main equipment manufacturers in the food industry quite well.

Marel developed Innova, a food production management software that provides full traceability throughout the production process and helps food producers improve performance and enhance productivity, and is compatible with the Worximity TileboardTM technology. Marel employs more than 6,000 employees in more than 30 countries and invests approximately 6% of revenues in innovation every year.

A proven technology that is simple, scalable and reliable
The technology offered by Worximity plays a key role in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, as it connects all equipment and employees in processing facilities, allowing for real-time performance measurement and constant improvement in profitability allowing users to remain competitive in relevant markets. Since its founding, Worximity has collaborated with customers from around the world, including Barry Callebaut, BIC, Grupo Nutec, Daunat, Dessaint Traiteur, Fleury Michon, Royal Canin and Ozpak.

The Worximity Technology team is comprised of 25 knowledge-based employees, and includes software developers, engineers, data scientists, business analysts and specialists in artificial intelligence. The company plans to double its workforce by the end of 2020.
