Full Swiss Service Partner for Manufacturers

Swiss Market Entry Challenges

Market Entry Friction

Building a Swiss team is expensive. But selling without local service presence damages your reputation with Swiss customers.

Travel Cost & Delays

Your technicians travel 8-12 hours for a 4-hour intervention. Your Swiss customers wait days instead of hours.

Language Barriers

Switzerland has three official languages. Your German team cannot serve French-speaking customers in Lausanne.

Slow Response Time

When a machine stops, your customer needs help now — not in 2-3 business days when your team can travel.

After-Sales Reputation Risk

Swiss customers expect fast, local support. Poor after-sales service kills repeat orders and referrals.

No Local Presence

Without a Swiss base, you miss maintenance contracts, spare parts revenue, and upgrade opportunities.

VLD Service becomes your permanent Swiss technical arm — without the cost of a subsidiary.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the partnership work financially?

We work on a project basis or through a framework agreement. You can invoice per intervention or set up a maintenance contract. No fixed costs unless you want them.

Can you work under our brand?

Yes. We can operate under your brand, as a joint team, or independently as VLD Service — whichever model fits your customer relationships.

What equipment categories do you cover?

Industrial washing systems, conveyor systems, meat and food processing lines, packaging machinery, filling equipment, and more. Our scope covers mechanical, electrical, and PLC work across all major equipment types.

How fast can you respond to service calls?

Under 4 hours for urgent calls from our base in central Switzerland. We cover all Swiss regions.

Do we need to train your team on our machines?

An initial technical briefing is helpful but not always necessary. Our team has 20+ years of experience across a wide range of industrial equipment. We learn fast and follow your documentation precisely.
