LIXIL has announced the appointment of Thomas Schachner as the new Leader of LIXIL Europe, effective April 1, 2025. Schachner, who has over 15 years of experience with the company, has previously held various senior leadership positions, including overseeing operations in Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean. Most recently, he served as Leader of Supply Chain Management for the EMENA region.
Schachner succeeds Bijoy Mohan, who has been providing interim leadership for LIXIL Europe since August 2023. Mohan will return to his role as Leader of LIXIL International. During his time in charge, Mohan led the successful restructuring of LIXIL Europe, which helped the company return to growth, particularly through a more focused strategy targeting key groups and an enhanced GROHE brand offering.
Commenting on his appointment, Schachner stated: 'I am honoured to take on this responsibility. Together with our outstanding teams, I am confident we will continue to grow the GROHE brand and deliver exceptional value to our business partners through our innovative product portfolio.'
LIXIL expressed its appreciation for Bijoy Mohan's leadership and continued commitment to the company's global success, while congratulating Schachner on his new role.
