20.10.25 • Managing Director Juha Korhola has led SEW-EURODRIVE Oy since 2022. Under his leadership, the company has strengthened its position as a pioneer in drive technology and drive automation in Finland – with a customer-oriented, responsible, and determined approach.

Juha Korhola’s journey with SEW-EURODRIVE Oy began long before his current role. Prior to becoming Managing Director, he served for many years as Sales Director, actively contributing to the development of customer relationships, services, and the company’s position within Finnish industry.

For Korhola, stepping into the role of Managing Director was a natural progression – an opportunity to lead a company whose values he shares and whose development he has significantly influenced. He describes the journey as both inspiring and meaningful.

According to Korhola, adapting to market changes means embracing opportunities to develop operations, leverage technological solutions, and invest in employee competence. At SEW-EURODRIVE Oy, creating value for customers – now and in the future – is at the heart of everything.

Drivers of Growth

The company’s growth is driven by skilled personnel, long-term customer relationships, and the support of the global SEW-EURODRIVE Group. A customer-oriented approach is deeply embedded in the company’s DNA. The Drive Technology Center in Hollola, Service Centers in Hollola and Tornio, and six Regional Offices form a strong network that supports customers locally across Finland.

Korhola also emphasizes the importance of investments as enablers of growth. Through them, the company builds its future, strengthens customer relationships, and ensures it remains at the forefront of development. In 2024, SEW-EURODRIVE Oy invested approximately one million euros in its Hollola Service Center and Drive Technology Center. These investments support the company’s growth targets, the development of service operations, and lay the foundation for new jobs – further reinforcing its position as a pioneer in drive technology and drive automation.

These investments also support SEW-EURODRIVE Oy’s development path, which focuses on the digitalization of drive technology, life cycle services, and system deliveries. They open up new business opportunities and strengthen the company’s role as a local collaboration partner.

“I would like to thank the personnel of SEW-EURODRIVE Oy and our stakeholders for your dedication and contribution to the success of our company.”
