- Arvato is one of the eight divisions of Bertelsmann and a consolidation of more than 200 individual companies that started as a captive unit of the Bertelsmann group’s media and publishing companies in 1835 in the German city of Gütersloh.
- More than a century since its inception, Arvato’s primary business remained into document management for the parent group of publishing companies.
- Since 2014, Arvato changed its strategic directions to go global and tap into opportunities outside of European countries. This has driven restructuring efforts and fine-tuning of its solution groups.
- These solution groups operate largely independently catering to client markets and operations.
- Each solution group is lead by an individual chief executive officer. There are four primary solution groups: customer relationship management, supply chain management, financial services, and information technology services.
