PipeChain Expands Global Reach With Quyntess Acquisition in Major Supply Chain Tech Move

Swedish supply chain software specialist PipeChain has announced the acquisition of Dutch supply chain technology company Quyntess in a deal set to significantly strengthen its position in the global collaborative supply chain software market.

The acquisition brings together two major players in cloud-based supply chain digitalisation, creating a combined business with annual sales of around €22 million and a yearly ARR run rate of approximately €16 million.

For PipeChain, the move represents a major expansion of both its geographical footprint and technological capabilities. Quyntess already operates across the Benelux region, Germany, France, and the United States, giving PipeChain greater access to key international markets and a broader customer base spanning automotive, retail, and multinational enterprise sectors.

The deal also deepens PipeChain’s ability to support the entire procure-to-pay process, an increasingly critical requirement as businesses seek tighter visibility, automation, and control across global supply chains.

Quyntess brings advanced technology built on modern architectural principles, something PipeChain says will allow substantial improvements across its existing software platform. The combined business plans to accelerate AI-enabled automation, improve supply chain execution, and help businesses shift from reactive management towards more intelligent, data-driven decision-making.

Hans Berggren, CEO and Co-founder of PipeChain, described the acquisition as a “major milestone” for the company.

He said the partnership strengthens PipeChain’s ambition to become the leading collaborative platform for supply chain digitalisation across multiple industries.

According to Berggren, companies operating in increasingly complex global networks need far more than traditional logistics tools. Businesses now require real-time visibility, integrated planning, automated workflows, and intelligent execution systems capable of responding rapidly to disruption and shifting demand.

Quyntess CEO Rob van Ipenburg said the two companies shared a common vision centred on connected, data-driven supply chains.

He added that combining Quyntess’ next-generation technology with PipeChain’s collaborative network expertise would accelerate innovation while delivering stronger end-to-end digitalisation capabilities for customers across Europe, the United States, and beyond.

The acquisition highlights the continued consolidation taking place across the supply chain technology sector as businesses invest heavily in automation, AI integration, and digital transformation following years of global supply chain disruption.

PipeChain was advised on the transaction by DLA Piper, while Quyntess was advised by Marktlink Mergers & Acquisitions and Fruytier Lawyers in Business.
