What Aucxis does

Aucxis bv is a Belgian technology company founded in 1983 and headquartered in Stekene, Belgium, specializing in business automation across two primary business units: RFID Solutions and E-Trade Systems. The RFID Solutions division delivers end-to-end implementations covering hardware (tags, readers, antennas, scanners, gates), middleware (HERTZ for ERP integration), and software (POLARIS for asset management, PLUTO as an entry-level platform), supported by E-Track and R-Track portals for centralized tracking and the ionBIZ customer support portal. The E-Trade Systems division operates KOSMOS, a cloud-based real-time auction platform serving wholesale markets in fruit, vegetables, floriculture, and fisheries. A third offering, STAR, provides RFID-based reusable cup tracking aligned with European SUP directives for events and venues. The company maintains an in-house anechoic chamber for RFID tag optimization in challenging environments including metal and ATEX zones, and holds ISO 9001 certification.

The company employs 50+ people and serves enterprise and government customers across logistics, healthcare, manufacturing, fresh produce, retail, diamond certification, fashion, agriculture, and public infrastructure. Notable named customers include Ardo, Euro Pool System (2M tagged RTIs, 3,000 SSCCs processed daily across 25 countries), Hoogvliet, Alvero, Huktra, HRD Antwerp (bulk reading up to 200 diamonds simultaneously), Belgian hospitals (ZMK, AZ Sint-Maarten, Vitaz), De Lijn, Rijkswaterstaat, and Brussels Airport. Revenue streams combine hardware sales, recurring software subscriptions (KOSMOS, POLARIS, PLUTO), managed services (STAR), and project-based professional services, with custom quote-based pricing under multi-year contracts. Distribution is direct enterprise sales with consultative solution design, supplemented by trade show presence and an annual RFID Xperience customer event. Aucxis operates globally via its customer footprint in 25+ countries, with explicit operating geographies in Belgium, the Netherlands, and France.
