November 17, 2020
Swisslog, a global leader in robotic, data-driven and flexible automated solutions recently completed a multimillion-dollar renovation of its main office in Newport News. The building is located on the company’s Virginia campus, which is Swisslog’s Americas Region headquarters.
As companies continue to look for technologies that will help them move product closer to consumers and meet changing demands and expectations, Swisslog anticipates increased focus on automation and software solutions. Recently, the company has seen increased interest and growth opportunities around e-grocery and e-commerce. Notably, the company recently partnered with H-E-B in San Antonio, Texas to support the grocery retailer’s growing demand for online fulfillment. Swisslog is working with H-E-B to deploy a number of automated micro-fulfillment centers to support the chain’s curbside pick-up and delivery business.
Swisslog’s other Americas offices are located in Mason, OH, Salida, CA and Tlalnepantla de Baz, Mexico, with their global headquarters in Buchs, Switzerland. The company employs 2,500 people in approximately 20 countries - 345 of which work out of the Newport News headquarters.
