4flow celebrates 25 years of supply chain optimization

On May 4, 2000, 4flow was founded with a bold mission: to help global leaders optimize their supply chain networks with tailored services and digital solutions. The five founders wanted to establish new standards for supply chain management. 

Now, in 2025, we’re celebrating a quarter of a century of that 4flow spirit. What started with a small and ambitious team in Berlin, Germany, has grown thanks to the trust of our customers into a global team of over 1300 dedicated and talented employees. 

Together with our customers and partners, we navigate change, embrace continuous innovation, and set new standards for global supply chains. 

“Logistics and supply chain management is perceived, by businesses and society, as being much more important than it was 25 years ago. And today technology makes things possible that were unthinkable before. In addition to great teamwork, the drive to make supply chains better and better has always been a constant. My sincere thanks go to all 4flow customers, the 4flow team, and everyone who has been a part of our journey. All of you have made 25 years of 4flow possible,” said Kai Althoff, CEO and co-founder of 4flow.
