Nidec Elevator is pleased to announce the opening of its new branch in Lyon, France, an important step forward in the company’s continued growth across Europe. The branch has been established in close collaboration with Leroy‑Somer and reflects the company’s commitment to serving customers with greater proximity, responsiveness, and long‑term support.
The Lyon location marks a significant milestone in Nidec Elevator’s development. It reinforces the company’s steady and sustainable expansion, driven by the principles that have shaped its reputation: dependable product quality, attentive customer service, and a genuine dedication to being closer to the people and organisations it supports.
The opening of the Lyon branch also plays a key role in the Nidec Elevator SSO initiative. By strengthening its local presence and creating a more efficient supply chain, Nidec Elevator is positioning itself to respond more effectively to customer needs throughout Europe.
Beginning April 1, Nidec Elevator products will be prepared and shipped directly from Lyon. This enhancement will shorten lead times, streamline logistics, and improve day‑to‑day service for customers and partners across the region.
Nidec Elevator remains committed to investing in what matters: operational excellence, local engagement, and solutions that support market needs with clarity and reliability. The launch of the Lyon branch is another meaningful step in building a stronger, more connected European network.
The company extends its sincere thanks to all teams involved for their hard work and dedication in bringing this milestone to life. Nidec Elevator looks forward to deepening its partnerships and supporting the European market with even greater agility.
