About AFS Technologies
Established in 1985, AFS Technologies has carved out a significant presence in providing enterprise software solutions specifically tailored for the consumer goods, food, and beverage industries. The company’s trajectory has been marked by a series of strategic acquisitions, including MEI, Synectics, and Answer Systems for trade promotion management, as well as Visicom and Quofore for retail execution, significantly expanding its application portfolio over the years. A major milestone in the company's history was its acquisition by TELUS in August 2020 for approximately CAD 320 million, which led to its integration into the newly formed TELUS Agriculture & Consumer Goods business unit.
