LKQ Europe is opening a new ‘Innovation and Service Center’ in Katowice, Poland later this year.

The new center will enable LKQ Europe to offer innovative digital products and solutions to its customers while strengthening cost competitiveness and process efficiencies.

Its digital team in Poland will soon start creating an innovative digital hub to develop European-wide solutions for a state-of-the-art customer experience.

LKQ’s team members throughout Europe will drive forward the Company’s digital agenda and enable digitalization and innovation.

From this year on, digital, IT and administrative operations will be also carried out by LKQ experts in Katowice.

In the medium term, the site will have approximately 200–250 employees.

The recruitment process started in April 2021.

Arnd Franz, CEO of LKQ Europe said: “The establishment of the Innovation and Service Center in Katowice will boost LKQ Europe’s innovation and digitalization strategy.

“The city of Katowice offers an outstanding infrastructure and international talent.

“I am delighted that LKQ will be part of Katowice’s success story.

“We are seeking the most qualified people and offer them an international working atmosphere and a unique business experience to support our customers across Europe, today and in the future.”
