Record-breaking order intake for TGW

AT 1.07 billion euros, revenue slightly exceeded the previous year’s all-time high. The earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) rose significantly to 49.3 million euros, and the number of employees grew to 4,645.

TGW Logistics chief executive officer Henry Puhl, says: “Our order intake has risen by 55% to 1.5 billion euros – the highest it’s been in our company’s history. That ensures our capacity utilisation in the coming months in both production and realisation. The operating result (EBIT) also experienced a significant upward trend: at 49.3 million, it increased 66% compared to last year. We are seeing the positive effects of the transformation program, which we successfully completed in the summer of 2025.”

R&D

Investments in research and development amounted to 52.8 million euros, corresponding to 4.9% of the revenue. Innovation has been an integral part of the company’s DNA since its founding in 1969. At present, particular focus is on mobile and stationary robotics, artificial intelligence and the possibility of digitalisation. Medium-sized companies and global players alike put their trust in TGW Logistics’ expertise: during the 2024/25 business year, these included home appliance specialist BSH Hausgeräte, healthcare supplier OneMed and spare parts expert AUTODOC.

Dual employee participation

For the 2024/25 business year, TGW Logistics will be distributing 5.5 million euros in the form of dual employee participation – the sixth time it has done so. “In the interest of transparency and fairness, each employee will receive the same base amount. No matter whether they work in Austria, the USA or China and no matter their function,” emphasises Henry Puhl. “The fact that our employees can participate in our success is a central element in our foundation philosophy.”

What’s more, as a foundation-owned company, TGW Logistics cannot be sold and is a stable business partner as well as a reliable employer. Two-thirds of its profits remain within the company and are invested. The other third goes to the owner, the TGW Future Private Foundation, which in turn uses at least 30 percent of that to support the charitable projects of TGW Future Wings. Those projects focus on the comprehensive personal development of children and young people.

Expansion of HQ

The expansion of the TGW headquarters in Marchtrenk (Austria) was launched in September 2024. Now the construction progress is clearly visible and the showcase project continues on schedule.

“By the summer of 2026, we will have constructed a 16,000 m2 production hall and a highly-automated storage system, laying the foundation for our planned growth over the coming years. We are investing a total of roughly 100 million euros”, according to Sebastian Wolf, chief financial officer at TGW Logistics. “This constitutes not only a strong affirmation of the potential of intralogistics, but also and above all of this location.”
