Kuehne+Nagel Slovakia Boosts Team by Over 60%
In a significant development for the Slovak logistics landscape, global transport and logistics company Kuehne+Nagel announced a substantial expansion of its team in Slovakia, effective July 1, 2025. The company plans to grow its Slovak workforce by more than 60%, with the contract logistics business unit specifically tripling its number of employees.
New Automotive Client Fuels Expansion
This major growth is directly attributed to securing a new, large client from the high-demand automotive sector. The expansion was facilitated smoothly through the transfer of employees' rights and obligations from the previous service provider, demonstrating Kuehne+Nagel's strategic approach to onboarding and integration rather than relying on mass recruitment efforts.
Implications for the Slovak Logistics Market
The significant expansion by a key player like Kuehne+Nagel underscores the dynamic growth and increasing demand within Slovakia's logistics sector, particularly from industries like automotive. For businesses currently seeking or considering warehouse and industrial space in Slovakia, this news highlights a competitive and active market. Such growth indicates strong underlying economic activity and potentially increasing demand for well-located and modern logistics facilities across the country.
