Engelbert Strauss Elevates Omni Channel Logistics with TGW’s Cutting-Edge Automation

Schlüchtern, Germany

Omni Channel Logistics: A Game Changer for Engelbert Strauss

Founded in 1948, Engelbert Strauss has grown from a small family business to a global leader in workwear. Known for durable and comfortable products, the company now serves corporate clients, tradespeople, and DIY enthusiasts worldwide. This growth demanded a scalable logistics solution, so they partnered with TGW Logistics to revolutionize operations at their CI Factory in Schlüchtern, Germany.

  • Labor Optimization: Reducing manual labor while enhancing efficiency.
