Swisslog expands presence in France with Directeur Général and new Lyon office

Philippe brings a wealth of experience to Swisslog, having previously served in key leadership roles in the industry. His extensive background and proven track record make him the ideal candidate to drive Swisslog's expansion in France.
 
One of the first initiatives under Philippe's leadership has been the opening of a new office in Lyon. This strategic move highlights Swisslog's dedication to serving its French customers and strengthening its position as a leading provider of intralogistics automation solutions in France.
 
The new office will provide Swisslog with a strong foothold in the region. Philippe Dugougeat commented on this, saying, "I am thrilled to take on the role of leader of Swisslog France. This expansion into Lyon represents an incredible opportunity to showcase our commitment to the French market and deliver solutions tailored to our customers’ needs."
 
Swisslog is actively looking to grow its presence in the French market by strengthening its relationships with existing customers and forging new partnerships. The Lyon office will serve as a central hub for business development, customer engagement, and facilitating collaboration with local businesses.
 
Commenting on the France expansion, Jens Schmale, CEO Swisslog: “With Philippe's strong leadership expertise and the opening of the new office in Lyon, we are well-positioned to deliver world-class automation solutions to our valued customers in France and drive growth in the French market. This investment reflects our confidence in the French business environment, and we look forward to continuing our journey in this vibrant country.”
