Partnership

Aeppler Group & Jo Berger Group: An Alliance for the Agricultural Revolution

Redefining the future of food supply in the USA – at the new AB-TIC.

Vision Meets Technology

The challenges facing modern agriculture and global food supply demand holistic solutions. That is why the Aeppler Group and the Jo Berger Group have joined forces in a strategic partnership that transcends industry boundaries.

At the heart of this cooperation is the Aeppler Berger Tech Innovation Center (AB-TIC) in Waco, Texas. Here, in the center of the American agricultural landscape, we merge our expertise in logistics, vehicle manufacturing, and digitalization to develop sustainable and efficient systems for the US market.

Our Mission at AB-TIC

We no longer view the value chain as separate sectors, but as a fluid, data-driven process – from seed to supermarket shelf. The AB-TIC functions as an incubator for technologies that harmonize ecology and economy.

Key Areas of Partnership:

  • Autonomous Agri-Systems:

    Utilization of drone technology for field analysis and AI-driven harvesters that communicate in real-time with logistics fleets to minimize harvest losses.

  • Next-Gen Logistics:

    Development and testing of zero-emission propulsion concepts for heavy-duty trucks, leveraging hydrogen fuel cell technology and HVO100 biofuels for the American highway.

  • Transparency through Blockchain:

    Security creates trust. Our systems enable seamless monitoring of sensitive cold chains. Temperature data and proof of origin are tamper-proof and transparently accessible to all stakeholders.

  • Human-Machine Collaboration:

    We design work environments where exoskeletons and autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) support skilled workers in warehouses, enhancing both efficiency and safety.

Why Aeppler & Jo Berger?

This partnership is more than the sum of its parts. By combining the global logistics networks of the Aeppler Group with the technological innovation power of the Jo Berger Group, we are setting a new standard: Smarter, Greener, Safer.
