Forstify is founded
Marco Hartmann and Christian Kaulich found Forstify GmbH in Arnsberg — rooted in the roundwood trade, with the idea of making timber marketing simpler.
“From a simple idea grew a tailor-made platform for the digitalisation of forestry — one that supports its users every day in managing their forests. And we make our technology accessible to everyone, through attractive pricing and simple operation.”
«Proprio nei settori strettamente interconnessi la digitalizzazione può semplificare la quotidianità di molte persone e aziende. È esattamente questo che ci spinge.»
