Logistics services provider Bibby Distribution has acquired part of warehouse management system developer Data Driven Software.

The move increases the Stafford-based development team, and gives the company the flexibility to develop new innovations in warehousing technology, and enter the software market to provide IT solutions to third parties.

Robert Lee, IT director at Bibby, says: “We are very pleased to confirm this acquisition that will allow us to invest in our flexible but highly functional low-cost solution which we see as a corner stone for our ongoing growth and development.”
