European tobacco and alternative nicotine manufacturer with 170+ year heritage
Landewyck operates a manufacturing business across tobacco, cigars, and emerging nicotine categories, sold in over 40 markets through six European subsidiaries. The tech stack—SAP, S/4HANA, industrial controllers (Siemens, Beckhoff, SCADA), and BI tools—reflects a production-centric organization managing supply chain complexity and regulatory compliance at scale. Active projects around automation, inventory valuation, and cost systems indicate internal focus on operational efficiency rather than digital transformation; hiring remains concentrated in engineering and finance roles, suggesting incremental modernization of existing control and planning infrastructure.
