Change of management at Swisslog

29. juni 2021

Dynamic markets thrive on changes of direction. Change means seizing new opportunities. The Swisslog Executive Board is pleased to announce the appointment of Antonio Trioschi as its new Chief Executive Officer with effect from 28 June 2021. Trioschi, who joined Swisslog nine years ago, succeeds Dr. Christian Baur as CEO of Swisslog.

Dr. Baur has played a key role in the acquisition and successful integration of Swisslog into KUKA over the last six years, and in defining a strong vision to become the leader in data- and robotics-driven solutions - setting Swisslog on a path to growth. The Executive Board would like to thank Dr. Baur for his many years of successful cooperation and wishes him every success for the future.

Trioschi has held leadership positions across Swisslog for many years and was previously responsible for its Greater Europe region. Since last year, he has been responsible for the unity of two regions, Central and Greater Europe, into one strong EMEA region. He has many years of management experience as well as leading global corporate operations and implementing international change projects. "Antonio’s dedication to the company and experience makes him the ideal candidate to carry Swisslog into the future in order to secure and continue recent growth", said KUKA CEO Peter Mohnen. Swisslog is a part of KUKA Group.

Swisslog as a strong partner in logistics

Swisslog continues to be a strong partner for innovative solution concepts and successful project execution. Antonio Trioschi, new CEO of Swisslog, says: "We will continue Swisslog's growth path, as we increase our global collaboration and focus on the field of robot-based solutions." He also reconfirms that the Swisslog headquarters will remain in Switzerland. "It is a place that very much shapes our work, as it is linked to the identity of our Swisslog culture and brand."
