The Estée Lauder Companies Strengthens Its Global Fulfillment Network with the Opening of a New, State-of-the-Art Galgenen Distribution Center Dedicated to the Travel Retail Channel

The Estée Lauder Companies (ELC) today announced the opening of its new, state-of-the-art distribution center located in Galgenen, Switzerland to accommodate the dynamic and future growth of its global Travel Retail business. Travel Retail, which covers the world of duty-free environments including airports, downtown locations, airlines, cruises and border shops, is one of the company’s highest growth channels and touches over 3 billion consumers a year. This new 300,000 square foot facility expands upon the company’s existing distribution footprint in Switzerland and will enable ELC to remain at the forefront of delivering its prestige beauty products and high-touch services to traveling consumers around the world. The center is equipped to support the continued growth of Travel Retail and will further drive the company's sustainability efforts.

Fabrizio Freda, President and Chief Executive Officer, Israel Assa, Global President, Travel Retail Worldwide and Roberto Canevari, Executive Vice President, Global Supply Chain hosted the opening ceremony with Nadine Graf, Senior Vice President, General Manager, Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), Maike Kiessling, General Manager, Switzerland, Jamal Chamariq, Senior Vice President, Global Supply Chain, EMEA and Travel Retail Worldwide and Sascha Trabelsi, Vice President, Supply Chain, Travel Retail Worldwide. The opening ceremony was attended by special guests including retailers, suppliers, local government officials, media and ELC employees.

“Travel Retail continues to demonstrate its resilience, driving tremendous growth over the last decade for The Estée Lauder Companies. We remain extremely confident in the channel for the long-term, especially as travel restrictions ease globally and people start traveling again,” said Fabrizio Freda. “The opening of our new Galgenen distribution center will enable us to adapt even better to ever-changing retail needs and growth opportunities for the channel, and expand upon our existing distribution presence in Switzerland.”

The Estée Lauder Companies’ Travel Retail division is the market share leader in the channel within the total beauty category across skin care, makeup, fragrance and hair care1. With a strong brand portfolio that resonates with consumers globally, ELC’s Travel Retail division continually demonstrates best-in-class marketing activations tailored to travelers’ needs, recruits new consumers and builds brand equity around the world. Accounting for 28% of ELC’s sales in fiscal year 2021, Travel Retail is uniquely positioned to win in this high growth environment with the company’s recent investment to expand its distribution network to meet the demands of the traveling consumer population.

“As we mark the 30th anniversary of The Estée Lauder Companies’ Travel Retail business, we are incredibly proud of our track record of exciting and delighting travelers all over the world with our exclusive products and high-touch experiences for the Travel Retail industry and having made the channel an integral engine of growth for ELC,” said Israel Assa. “As we look to the future, this investment here at Galgenen is a testament to our belief in the long-term growth potential of this channel and that by investing in these capabilities and with our retailers, we can capture the next generation of growth in this dynamic, prestige marketplace.”

The Estée Lauder Companies has a long history of success within Switzerland, opening its affiliate office more than 55 years ago and its first manufacturing plant more than 45 years ago. As the fifth largest employer in the canton of Schwyz, ELC prides itself on its inclusive and collaborative culture, competitive compensation and benefits, career development opportunities, commitments to health, safety and sustainability, and high-performance. The company currently has four distribution centers in Switzerland. Switzerland is also home to ELC’s EMEA and TR Supply Chain Management Hub in Wollerau, which drives agility, speed, and collaboration across our EMEA and Travel Retail supply chain teams. With the addition of the new facility in Galgenen, the Travel Retail business will double its total output capacity, enabling the flexibility necessary to adapt to the channel’s high growth potential.

“Galgenen will serve as a cornerstone of The Estée Lauder Companies’ agile, global fulfillment network,” said Roberto Canevari. “This distribution center will not only significantly enhance our capacity but enable operational efficiencies, speed-to-market and resiliency through innovative, highly automated equipment and technologies. Additionally, we are proud that Galgenen is also a shining example of ELC’s commitment to safety, quality, and sustainability.”

Galgenen will further advance the sustainability of ELC’s global manufacturing and distribution network and the company through its best-in-class environmental design and renewable energy efforts. The building’s design is based on the newest standards to reduce energy and water consumption. It features total LED lighting, an energy-efficient HVAC system and the roof’s solar panels generate 1600 kilowatts at peak performance (kWp). Furthering sustainability efforts, a comprehensive waste management system has been implemented to separate out numerous recyclables, with electric trucks ready for waste removal. As part of the recycling undertaking, wooden waste pallets will generate renewable heating energy. Worldwide, ELC is driving strategic initiatives to reduce its environmental footprint, integrate environmentally responsible practices and invest in innovative technology as part of efforts to not only provide consumers with transformative products and experiences, but also to contribute to the well-being of the planet.
