Xometry, the U.S.-based marketplace for on-demand manufacturing, has acquired Munich-based Shift, the largest on-demand manufacturing marketplace in Europe. Through the acquisition, Xometry will accelerate its international expansion into 12 new countries, leveraging a worldwide network of over 4,000 manufacturers.
Shift has built the largest on-demand manufacturing network in Europe and a customer base that includes some of the leading manufacturing companies. Shift will operate as Xometry Europe and continue to be headquartered in Munich, Germany.
