HERE FOR GLOBAL CONNECTIONS. STIHL worldwide

STIHL remains a family -owned business to this day – and yet, we are at home all over the world. With 42 STIHL -owned sales and marketing companies, around 120 importers and more than 55,000 independent dealers in over 160 countries, we are part of a truly global network. Our production sites span the globe – from Germany, Austria and Switzerland to Brazil, China, the Philippines and the USA. In short: if you want to gain international experience, you ’ll find the perfect conditions to do so at STIHL. Wherever we are, we work together – connected by shared values, mutual trust and the drive to keep moving forward.

ONE STIHL. An example of global collaboration in projects.

STIHL is currently working intensively on breaking down, optimizing and harmonizing all of its business processes concerning the SAP ERP landscape, and consolidating them into a single worldwide IT system: That covers 35 distribution companies and seven production companies. To achieve this, around 230 colleagues from eight nations are currently working together as the ONE STIHL team. Most of them are located in Germany, with others all over the world. However, the STIHL spirit is the same across the globe. Origin and language are not the biggest collaboration challenges, but rather the fact that communication, for example, has to take place across different time zones. 

But in spite of the challenges posed by an international project of this size, more than 22 sales companies and the first production company in Switzerland have already switched to the new system environment, with the next go-live, at STIHL Tirol, scheduled for the turn of the year from 2023 to 2024. Over the next few years other sales companies will follow, along with the German headquarters and Brazil as production sites, and then all other STIHL companies on a gradual basis. Once the project is complete, an order in the USA will be created in exactly the same way as it is in Germany, China and Brazil.
