A new corporate structure and challenging new goals for the social enterprise FERCAM, which becomes Echo Labs by FERCAM & DACHSER
Bolzano 24.05.24 - FERCAM Echo Labs announces the 50% acquisition of the company’s shares by DACHSER & FERCAM Italia, and becomes Echo Labs by FERCAM & DACHSER.
The entry of the new company is an important step for the social enterprise, founded less than two years ago on a major circular economy project, which provides the reconversion of disposed supply chain materials promoting integration and inclusion of vulnerable categories.
Great satisfaction was expressed by the managers leading Echo Labs, who strongly believed in the creation of the social enterprise and continue to guide it every day toward increasingly concrete and ambitious goals.
«The recent acquisition of 50% of Echo Labs by DACHSER & FERCAM Italia highlights the shared commitment of FERCAM and DACHSER to comprehensive sustainable growth, in line with the United Nations 2030 Agenda» says Bettina Baumgartner, Innovation Manager at FERCAM and Board Member of Echo Labs.
The transaction was also a source of pride for Dino Menichetti, Regional Manager at DACHSER & FERCAM Italia and President of the social enterprise. «The interest shown by DACHSER & FERCAM Italia represents an opportunity for growth and a strong signal of appreciation for our commitment. Just a few years after its founding, our social enterprise has already gained recognition for its concrete approach and innovation, attracting increasing attention for our awareness-raising activities on food waste reduction and for our urban and industrial regeneration projects. This new corporate structure may open up new international challenges, but above all, it will allow us to ensure continuity for our social carpentry workshop—the true beating heart of the enterprise» concludes Dino Menichetti.
