History
Atlas was originally incorporated in 2008 as “Atlas RFID Solutions Store, LLC” by its founder and former CEO Robert Fuqua. The company became focused as a B2B eCommerce business, fulfilling online orders for RFID equipment, tags and related accessories.[1]
In 2014, Atlas RFID was ranked No. 180 on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 list[2] as a distributor of RFID products across North America with agreements in place with many OEMs including: HID, Zebra, Smartrac, and Impinj.[3]
In January 2015, Los Angeles, California-based asset manager Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, and Benford Capital Partners, a Chicago, Illinois-based private equity firm, invested in the technology hardware company.[4]
In March 2019, Benford Capital Partners, along with Will Daly, former co-President, COO and CFO of Barcodes Inc., acquired the majority stake in Atlas RFID.
