Robert Brohl takes over overall responsibility for logistics at Galaxus

The online retailer Galaxus is restructuring the areas of Supply Chain Management and Logistics under the leadership of Robert Brohl. He will be responsible for approximately 1,400 employees at three locations in Switzerland and one in Germany. An additional 1,000 employees are expected to be hired in Neuenburg am Rhein by 2030.

Brohl has been with Galaxus in Krefeld since mid-2020. He initially started as the site manager, and in 2022 he became Head of Supply Chain Management for Digitec Galaxus in Switzerland and for Galaxus Germany, overseeing around 30 experts. From now on, the logistics managers and their teams in Krefeld, as well as in Wohlen, Switzerland, and the warehouses in Dintikon (CH), Roggwil (CH), and Oftringen (CH), will report to the PhD logistics specialist. Brohl is thus responsible for around 1,400 employees.

The logistics teams at the Neuenburg am Rhein location, which is currently under construction, will also report to him in the future. By 2030, around 1,000 new employees are expected to be hired in Neuenburg, a large portion of whom will be logistics professionals and specialists in IT, process management, technology, and more, also reporting to Robert Brohl.

Michael Stolle, Managing Director of Galaxus Germany and COO of Digitec Galaxus: “Robert Brohl combines practical logistics expertise, proven experience in managing large growth projects, and an inclusive and appreciative leadership style in line with our Galaxus culture. I am very much looking forward to the further development of our logistics organization under his leadership.”

Continued Positive Development

Galaxus continues to develop positively in both Switzerland and Germany. In 2024, the revenue of Galaxus Deutschland GmbH increased by 27 percent to 362 million euros. The parent company Digitec Galaxus achieved a total revenue of 3.4 billion euros in 2024 (up 18 percent).
