Cloud-based logistics and supply chain technology provider Descartes has acquired Extensiv, a California-based provider of warehouse management and fulfillment solutions for third-party logistics providers (3PLs), for approximately $120 million.

The acquisition extends Descartes’ warehouse and inventory management capabilities while deepening its reach into the 3PL and eCommerce fulfillment market, company officials said in a Sept. 10 news release.  Extensiv helps 3PLs manage inventory, orders, B2B and B2C fulfillment and billing across a connected network of sales channels, eCommerce platforms, online marketplaces and carriers.
 

“The combination of Extensiv with Descartes’ transportation, connectivity, visibility, trade intelligence, customs compliance and last mile delivery solutions, enables logistics service providers to expand their offerings and scale operations with a single technology provider versus a patchwork of vendors,” Descartes General Manager of  Logistics Services Providers Scott Sangster said.

This deal follows Descartes’ acquisition of an transportation management solutions provider for freight brokers, Tai, on Aug. 24, 2026.
