Everything began in 1999 with bicycle courier companies from six Swiss cities
The result is a unique network with 80 qualified courier companies throughout the country. The interconnection of the local courier companies with the railway and our own in-house logistics software has been perfected continuously. Today, swissconnect is the fastest and most sustainable courier in Switzerland and transports countless express deliveries for corporate customers every day.
Uniting 500 bicycle and 200 car couriers
swissconnect relies on high-quality courier services and has worked exclusively with qualified courier companies since its founding more than 20 years ago. The 80 local partner companies employ around 700 professional couriers throughout Switzerland. These provide top performance on a daily basis and are personally committed to ensuring that every individual express delivery arrives with the recipient on time and reliably. The couriers are based locally and know the best routes for the destination in each case.
The partner companies provide bicycles, cargo bikes, cars, delivery trucks and lorries for the transportation of every consignment, no matter how big or small. The members of the swissconnect network are connected with 10 different railway companies. The express deliveries travel throughout Switzerland without traffic jams and practically emission-free. The ingenious swissconnect transport system guarantees faster and more ecological express deliveries than any other courier service in Switzerland.
A central logistics software for the entire network
In addition to the physical express deliveries, we also transport in parallel data that ensures that the express delivery is picked up and delivered at the right place. This takes place in our own swissconnect logistics software that was developed for this purpose. The biggest partner companies are also connected directly to it. The trained employees use the software to organise every individual express delivery. In doing so, the fastest and most ecological means of transport is always selected for the right place and the right time.
Learning from each other and advancing together
The network members and swissconnect have maintained regular exchange with each other for many years. Improvements, new ideas and the current market trends are discussed at regular meetings. This valuable dialogue allows the individual network partners to continually develop together with swissconnect. It is important for us to present to the customers the best possible solutions for their delivery requests right across Switzerland. This is only possible when we pool our knowledge and forces and are open to cooperation. Would you like to find out more about the unique swissconnect network? Contact us now.
