Gilgen Logistics strengthens German business with new managing director
Gilgen Logistics, an international company, has been represented in Germany for several years with two locations. Stuttgart is home to a development centre for storage and retrieval machines. The Dortmund office has primarily focused on customer service to date. With Thomas Müller as managing director, the Dortmund location will also take on central sales tasks for market development in Germany in the future, thus contributing to the next stage of growth.
Thomas Müller: extensive experience in intralogistics
Thomas Müller (41) is a trained mechanical engineer with many years of management and sales experience in the logistics, automation and mechanical engineering industries. He combines strong technical skills with practical, entrepreneurial expertise. Throughout his career, he has repeatedly managed complex sales and service organisations efficiently and developed them strategically – most recently as Head of Account Management at Swisslog, where he was responsible for an extensive customer portfolio and led a large multinational team.
Closer to the German market
“We are delighted to have Thomas Müller, a highly experienced specialist, join Gilgen Logistics and to be able to drive forward the expansion of our activities in Germany with him,” says Daniel Gilgen, CEO of Gilgen Logistics. “We want to work more closely with our customers in Germany in future and support them throughout the entire life cycle of their systems – from initial contact to finding solutions and commissioning to service and support.”
Gilgen Logistics' German locations focus on automated intralogistics systems for pallets and small goods – in particular conveyor technology, storage and retrieval machines and high-bay warehouse solutions.
