- Customer Story
With more than 4,000 employees spread across more than 50 locations, HUBER+SUHNER, the specialist in electrical and optical connectivity, enables a digitally connected world with products like fiber optic cables, connectors, and cable systems. Managing expenses for its globally distributed workforce was a major challenge, so they turned to Yokoy to deliver a seamless, global expense management solution.
The Challenge: A Diverse Company with Global Presence
As HUBER+SUHNER expanded internationally in recent years, the challenge became clear: how to efficiently enable a globally distributed employee base without escalating costs and workload for its finance team.
The expense management process was particularly tricky. Previously, expenses were handled manually with handwritten signatures – a process that was outdated and in urgent need of digitalisation. But how do you find a solution that works seamlessly in countries as varied as China, India, and Tunisia?
The Solution: Simple, Intelligent, and Functional
The answer was Yokoy Expense. This solution met all the requirements for global implementation and provided a stable, intelligent application that made complex processes simple and efficient.
It was important for us that Yokoy could meet the basic needs of all our global locations without much customisation, such as adhering to policies and accurately reading various characters.

“It was important for us that Yokoy could meet the basic needs of all our global locations without much customisation, such as adhering to policies and accurately reading various characters,” explains Michael Gorecki, Head of Finance & Accounting at HUBER+SUHNER.
While other solutions failed to handle the unique challenges of countries like China, India, Poland, or Tunisia, Yokoy excelled. Yokoy’s artificial intelligence can precisely read receipt structures and characters, and comply with regulatory requirements – all without significant customisation. With pre-configured integrations into all major finance and HR tools, Yokoy provided the perfect setup for simple global approval processes and real-time data transfers.
The Impact: A Perfectly Executed Go-Live
We hit a home run with our ambitious implementation plan. Everything worked perfectly afterward, and our employees immediately understood Yokoy – the best outcome we could hope for. The scanning and intelligent matching save us a tremendous amount of work – it’s truly a quantum leap for us.
Today, all employees worldwide can quickly and easily submit, review, and approve expenses via the Yokoy mobile app, no matter where they are or which location they work at. Yokoy is intuitive, not overloaded, and intelligent – making it enjoyable for both employees and the finance team.
With Yokoy Expense, HUBER+SUHNER connects employees worldwide through a standardised and digital expense and approval process. The platform runs smoothly and reliably and adapts to HUBER+SUHNER’s evolving needs without significant support efforts.
