Xometry, a global online marketplace connecting enterprise buyers with suppliers of manufacturing services, has acquired Istanbul-based Tridi, and has launched a localized marketplace for Turkish customers. With the acquisition of Tridi, Xometry adds a significant marketplace in a strategic area of the region that can support customer needs throughout Europe.
Xometry’s localized marketplaces are powered by the company’s proprietary, AI-driven Instant Quoting Engine and allow regional customers to get quotes and purchase parts directly in local currency.
Tridi’s customers come from diverse industries such as aerospace and aeronautics, automotive, consumer electronics, plastics, and more, and include large international enterprise organizations. Tridi offers CNC machining, 3D printing, sheet metal fabrication, injection molding, and urethane casting services across its network of vetted regional manufacturing suppliers. Tridi will continue its operations under the Xometry Turkey brand, and will be a subsidiary of Xometry Europe.
