WITRON’s logistics podcast

WITRON’s logistics podcast is published once a month and always focuses on different logistics aspects. We report on customer projects, on our strategy, but also on developments in the industry. Sometimes, texts, interviews, or infographics also emerge from the podcast. We share knowledge.

If you want to be part of our podcast, please feel free to contact us. We are always on the watch for interesting topics from retail, industry, or logistics. Our episodes are available at all known podcast catchers like Apple, Spotify, or Google, or on our website.

We talk to Fabian Rösel, Head of HR at WITRON, about the change in corporate culture at WITRON. Fabian explains how WITRON has grown from 2,200 to over 7,300 employees in the last ten years and how the integration of over 100 nationalities influences work and collaboration. He describes how the typical WITRON mentality - pragmatic, direct and often stubborn - helps to shape the company's success and the challenges that growing diversity brings with it.

News from the ideas room

In WITRON’s ideas room, you will find many different topics around logistics. For us, the ideas room is a knowledge platform. It was launched in 2019. There, our guests discuss about technology, processes, digitalization, and management topics with the editorial staff or WITRON managers. Scientists as well as many international customers of WITRON talk about their experiences. Migros, Asko, or Spar report on their logistics strategies.

In addition, suppliers are also always part of the round table discussions. The posts are enriched with podcasts, infographics, videos, and surveys. The ideas room is thus a multimedia platform for retail logistics that does not yet exist in this form. If you would like to be part of the ideas room yourself, please contact our marketing department. We are always looking forward to exciting logistics topics. Important to us: The focus is not on products, but on strategies and technologies.
