Scandit Continues Rapid International Growth with New San Francisco Office

Scandit was founded in Europe in 2009 and has established itself as the leader in the emerging BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) scanning market for employees and consumers while also providing a more cost-effective alternative to traditional, dedicated hardware device scanners. Scandit processes hundreds of millions of scans per year for a variety of retailers, manufacturers, logistics companies and other enterprises, with global scan volume doubling over the past year. The US accounts for 80 percent of these scans, demonstrating Scandit’s foothold in and focus on the market, supported by its new office and appointments.

As Vice President of Marketing, Heidi Elgaard brings more than 15 years of experience in senior marketing positions for major corporations to her role where she is responsible for Scandit’s marketing function.

Marlene Tuzar was named Scandit’s vice president of sales, responsible for the strategic direction, management and success of all aspects of direct sales and strategic OEM relationships for the business.

Daniel Thalhammer joined Scandit as head of partnerships.

“With its reputation as a key technology hub, San Francisco was the perfect location for us to expand into the US,” said Samuel Mueller, CEO at Scandit. “Our management team consists of seasoned experts in their respective areas of responsibility. These new additions, coupled with our recent round of funding, will help to further bolster our presence and growth in North America as well as support partner and customer needs.”
