Building a unified global network foundation for growth, resilience and innovation

For a company operating across nearly one hundred locations worldwide, IT infrastructure is far more than a technical necessity — it is a strategic enabler.

JBT Marel is a global leader in advanced food processing and automation technology, serving an industry where uptime, scalability and innovation are critical. But as the organization continued to grow internationally, a fragmented IT environment and inconsistent standards made it increasingly difficult to maintain the level of control, visibility and operational efficiency needed across regions.

To address this, JBT Marel partnered with Avit to create a more standardized, secure and future-ready digital foundation.

What started as a focused collaboration around lifecycle management and Cisco modernization gradually developed into a broader strategic partnership. Over the years, Avit has supported JBT Marel in harmonizing network infrastructure, modernizing core environments and building a scalable architecture capable of supporting a global business.

A key part of this transformation has been the implementation of Cisco SD-WAN, enabling JBT Marel to improve performance, centralize network management and strengthen security across international sites — including locations with limited local IT resources. Combined with 24/7 support, engineering expertise and long-term architectural guidance, this has given the organization a much stronger and more unified operational backbone. The PDF also highlights that this included design, rollout and management of the SD-WAN environment, as well as support through Engineer-as-a-Service and architecture sessions

This foundation has become even more important following the merger between Marel and the American company JBT. Integrating two major international organizations requires an IT landscape that is robust, standardized and ready to scale.

Today, JBT Marel is positioned with a stronger digital infrastructure built for the next decade — supporting continued innovation, operational continuity and global growth.
