Dematic and Apex to Showcase Cutting-Edge Automation Solutions at SAPICS 2025
Dematic, a global leader in intelligent automation technology, is set to make its debut at the SAPICS Conference and Exhibition 2025, taking place from 8 to 11 June at the Century City Conference Centre in Cape Town. In partnership with long-time collaborator Apex-RTS, Dematic will showcase advanced warehouse automation solutions tailored to the evolving needs of South African businesses.
The joint presence at SAPICS 2025 underscores a strategic commitment to the region, combining global innovation with local expertise. As a silver sponsor of Africa’s leading supply chain event, Dematic will co-exhibit with Apex-RTS at a co-branded stand, creating a hub for knowledge sharing, technology demonstrations, and customer engagement.
“This event is not just about showcasing technology; it’s about creating meaningful conversations with supply chain professionals who are ready to transform their operations,” said Michael Bradshaw, Vice President of Solutions Development at Dematic. “Our partnership with Apex-RTS enables us to bring scalable, intelligent solutions to businesses across South Africa—solutions that are grounded in local insight and backed by global experience.”
Apex-RTS, which has represented Dematic’s warehouse software in the region for nearly 20 years, brings a wealth of expertise in systems design, implementation, and customer support. Together, the companies aim to help businesses unlock operational efficiency through tailored automation strategies—from automated storage and retrieval to software-driven order fulfilment and real-time warehouse optimisation.
“Our collaboration with Dematic is rooted in a shared vision to empower South African businesses,” said Alan Richard, Director at Apex-RTS. “Through automation, we’re helping customers address labour challenges, improve speed and accuracy, and ultimately build more resilient supply chains. SAPICS gives us the perfect opportunity to connect with industry leaders ready to embrace this change.”
Looking ahead, Dematic and Apex-RTS will continue to invest in joint market initiatives, local consulting services, and customer-centric solution design. Backed by Apex’s in-country service capabilities, South African businesses can expect end-to-end support in deploying solutions that align with both immediate operational goals and long-term growth plans.
