Swiss company database

Buy Swiss company addresses: address lists by industry

The 22 industries are starting points, not guaranteed delivery volumes. Name cantons and the contact fields you need; we confirm the available scope for exactly that combination.

Our database: 1,005,992 records (as of 4 November 2026), including all 796,383 active entities in the commercial register; the legal notices of company websites are being collected. Export of a whole industry from CHF 219.

Define industry and region as testable rules

  1. Before selecting, check which industry and regional attributes your system can store. Keep the NOGA code and the industry label separate; an industry name is not a unique company key.

  2. Define cantons, municipalities or language regions as rules, not as a wish list. What counts is the registered address in the source, not the area a company serves.

  3. Agree mandatory fields so that the later import does not have to invent values or overwrite existing data without checks. The UID is the most reliable field for matching.

Process

From request to file

Three steps. You commit to nothing in advance: first you see scope, reference date, delivery date and price, then you decide.

Request a list

1. Describe the target group

Name the industry or activity, the cantons, municipalities or language regions you want and the contact fields every record should contain. Help with defining it: NOGA 2008 – industry codes for target group lists.

2. Confirm scope and price

We state the number of records after filters, the available columns, the reference date, the delivery date and the price. All prices are final prices in CHF.

3. Receive the file

You receive the export as a UTF-8 CSV, on request as XLSX or JSON, as a one-off without a subscription.

Swiss company addresses: frequently asked questions

Yes, on request: our database holds 1,005,992 records (as of 4 November 2026). We accept requests: the written quotation states scope, fields, reference date and delivery date. As long as the records are not yet assigned to industries, each industry card shows the official number of businesses (FSO STATENT 2024) and the price for exporting the whole industry. Company data from other countries: EU and other markets.

Official statistics count 649,353 businesses in Switzerland for 2024 (FSO, Statistics on the structure of businesses (STATENT) 2024); the figure per industry is on each card. Our database holds 1,005,992 records, including all 796,383 active entities in the commercial register; 264,448 records have a phone number, email or website (as of 4 November 2026, database status). There are no figures of our own per industry yet. Filters by canton and contact fields make a list smaller; we state the size of your selection in the quotation.

Exporting a whole industry costs CHF 219 to CHF 439; the price of each industry is on its card and under Prices. Selections by canton, municipality or your own filters are quoted on request, together with scope and reference date. You receive a file for permanent use, not a subscription. All prices are final prices. How to compare offers is explained in the guide Buying Swiss company addresses.

As a UTF-8 CSV with semicolons as separators, on request as an Excel file (XLSX) or JSON. The 16 columns and a sample file with fictitious companies are on the export page.

So far from two public sources: the commercial register (Zefix via LINDAS, open government data of the Federal Commercial Registry Office) and the open places data of Overture Maps (Places, licence CDLA Permissive 2.0); planned are the legal notices on company websites, OpenStreetMap, open data from cantons and federal offices and individual look-ups in the FSO UID register. The commercial register is public (Art. 936 Code of Obligations); the Federal Commercial Registry Office publishes its entries as open government data. We never fill an empty field with an estimate. Details: data sources and methodology.

In Switzerland, mass advertising by email requires prior consent, also towards businesses (Art. 3 para. 1 let. o UWG); a list contains no consent. Sales calls are allowed to numbers listed in the telephone directory without the asterisk marking; unlisted numbers are treated like numbers with an asterisk (let. u). Direct mail is allowed without consent.

The data is therefore suited to direct mail, CRM matching and market analysis; the phone numbers are not checked against the asterisk marking and are not intended for sales calls. More: B2B marketing in Switzerland. The legal review of your campaign is your responsibility.

Yes. We derive canton, municipality and language region from the business address. The postcode is a column of the export that you can sort and filter yourself. What counts is the registered address of the company, not the area it serves.

In Zefix you look up individual companies free of charge; phone numbers, websites and industry codes are not in the commercial register. Telephone directories are meant for look-ups and often prohibit copying into address databases. A company list brings the details together in one table. What is public: Commercial register, Zefix and UID.

Not sure which industry fits?

Describe whom you want to reach. We suggest a definition and state scope and price; selection by NOGA codes is planned once the records carry a NOGA code.
