Frozen-food logistics operator with 40 German warehouses and European distribution network
NORDFROST operates Germany's largest frozen-food logistics footprint—40 facilities, ~1M pallet positions, 2,300 staff—with an active cloud migration underway (SAP RISE adoption). The hiring mix skews heavily logistics (79 roles) over engineering (30), but the project list reveals a parallel modernization track: SAP cloud migration, monitoring system development, Citrix virtualization, and database redesign alongside warehouse optimization. This split signals a company managing legacy on-premise infrastructure (SAP EWM, SQL Server, Citrix) while building cloud-native operational tooling.
