Tap into the Swiss market with confidence — we connect you with vetted local distributors.
DISTRIBUTOR SEARCH SERVICES FOR COMPANIES
Looking to grow in Switzerland? Our distributor search services are designed for B2B companies entering the Swiss market or improving their local presence. We manage the full process — from researching and qualifying distributors to scheduling meetings — so you can focus on generating revenue. Whether you’re starting from scratch or replacing an existing partner, we connect you directly with vetted decision-makers in your industry.
OUR MISSION
Building a distributor network in Switzerland can easily take 3 to 6 months — between outreach, screening, meetings, and coordination. For most teams, this effort diverts focus from key markets and slows international momentum.
Our experts based in Switzerland manage the entire distributor identification and vetting process. You save over 200 hours of internal work and only join when qualified meetings are ready — no time wasted.
From staffing costs and trade fairs to databases and on-site visits, distributor searches in Switzerland often cost over €15,000 — without any guarantee of success or market access.
For 9 720 CHF, we identify and contact 30 to 40 qualified Swiss distributors tailored to your industry. You get 3–7 high-quality meetings with engaged partners — and reduce spend by 30–50% compared to traditional methods.
Switzerland’s fragmented market, cultural diversity, and language complexity make distributor scouting difficult without local insight. Many strong prospects remain invisible to non-local teams.
Our consultants operate in Switzerland and speak German, French, and Italian. We find niche distributors others miss, engage them directly, and assess their fit — so you only meet serious, strategic partners.

Our team includes former international sales and export leaders who’ve launched operations across Europe. We know the unique dynamics of the Swiss market and the pressures that come with finding the right partners — fast.
Your distributor search isn’t outsourced and forgotten. We keep you in the loop through regular updates, share field feedback, and adjust the search to match your evolving priorities.
With consultants on the ground in Switzerland, we speak the local languages (French, German, Italian), engage distributors in context, and meet them in person — ensuring credibility, clarity, and results.
From research to meetings, we manage the entire process to help you connect with qualified Swiss distributors, faster and more efficiently.
We start by understanding your offer, sales model, and objectives. Then, we explore the Swiss market to identify 30 to 40 distributors that align with your positioning. You get a structured long list, with detailed insights and direct contacts — ready for prioritization.
Based on your shortlist, we contact each Swiss distributor directly. We present your solution, gauge their interest and capabilities, and gather operational data to assess the fit. Only committed, relevant partners are advanced.
You receive a profile for each qualified distributor. Once validated, we organize meetings (remote or face-to-face) and can assist during the conversations. Post-meeting, we help manage follow-ups and prepare the next steps toward an agreement.
A European manufacturer turned to us to build a sustainable presence in one other European country. Until then, occasional visits by sales reps had generated some interest — but no structured channel or local distributor had been put in place.
We launched a tailored distributor search in that country and identified 50 qualified companies. After collaborative filtering, 25 were prioritized and contacted one by one. Five showed clear interest. Four meetings took place, leading to two strong prospects.
Within just a few weeks, a distribution agreement was signed with one partner — who immediately requested two quotations from end customers, confirming both demand and alignment.

On average, a distributor search in Switzerland takes between 3 and 4 months. This depends on the industry, the complexity of your offering, and the level of responsiveness from your team and local prospects.
We charge a fixed fee of 9 720 CHF for a standard search. If your project includes several industries or distributor profiles, pricing may range from 9 720 to 13 000 CHF. Everything is quoted upfront — with no surprises.
Doing the search internally means covering staff time, research, outreach, and travel. That adds up quickly — and results aren’t guaranteed. Choosing the wrong Swiss distributor could cost even more. We help you avoid these risks with a targeted and proven approach.
No. We’re not intermediaries. We charge a project fee and don’t take a share of your future sales. This ensures we stay fully focused on finding the best match — not the biggest commission.
Our clients typically meet 2 to 7 serious Swiss distributors. The exact number depends on your market. Revenue outcomes depend on your team’s follow-up and offer. We open the right doors — you lead the sales.
Payment is split into 3 phases: 50% upfront, 25% after delivering the list, and 25% once meetings are scheduled. If market traction is lower than expected, we adjust scope or targets together. Our commitment: full transparency and strong execution.
