Layher — Lyon

Post-Brexit and post-pandemic, the reliance on direct shipping from Germany proved vulnerable to border delays. The Lyon entity acts as a customs and logistical de-coupling point, ensuring that French clients are insulated from cross-border transit volatility.

The construction sector in France faces a shortage of skilled labor. While Layher solves this for clients by providing faster-to-assemble systems, the Lyon facility itself faces challenges in recruiting specialized logistics staff and technical engineers in a competitive labor market. layher lyon
