The official groundbreaking for the new Swisslog global headquarters on Weihermattstrasse in Aarau, Switzerland has been completed.
By October 2026, around 320 employees will move into the state-of-the-art office building.
Swisslog will occupy the building as a tenant, marking a significant step in the company’s continued growth and development.
Hanspeter Hilfiker, Mayor of Aarau, says: “This new building is a major milestone for Swisslog. It not only provides a modern workspace but also contributes to the development of the surrounding area.
“We are pleased that Swisslog, as a key player, is strengthening its presence here and contributing to the positive development of the city.”
Jens Schmale, CEO of Swisslog, says: “Our employees can look forward to an attractive location in Aarau. The move will not only create a new, modern working environment but will also strengthen our local roots as an employer.
“Aarau provides the ideal conditions for us to further expand our position as a leading company in the logistics industry.”
The groundbreaking is particularly significant as it aligns with Swisslog’s 125th anniversary.
Schmale says: “It is a special moment to underscore our growth and future focus with a new headquarters, especially in our anniversary year.”
The new building is set for completion by fall 2026 and marks another milestone in Swisslog’s successful history.
