FAQ – Selling on Swiss Marketplaces

Which marketplace is best for launching in Switzerland as a new seller?

Galaxus (Digitec Galaxus Group) is by far the strongest entry point thanks to its dominant market share, high traffic and wide category coverage.
For brands seeking niche or vertical marketplaces, Manor (premium lifestyle), Microspot (electronics/home) and Brack.ch (DIY, electronics, home & garden) offer strong conversion and high trust among Swiss buyers.
If cross-border fulfillment is in place, Amazon.de also works well due to heavy Swiss traffic, but shipping speed and customs management must be optimized.

Do I need a Swiss company to sell on Swiss marketplaces?

Generally no, but conditions vary:

  • Galaxus and Brack.ch accept foreign sellers if they provide a Swiss-compatible returns address, VAT compliance and customer service.

  • A Swiss VAT number is required once you exceed the Swiss sales threshold.

  • Some platforms (Manor Marketplace, Microspot) require reliable German or French customer service depending on target regions.

  • Having a local warehouse or 3PL improves acceptance and logistics performance but is not mandatory.

What categories sell best in Switzerland in 2025?

Top categories include:

  • Consumer electronics and IT (the strongest market segment in Switzerland)

  • Home & living and small appliances

  • DIY & garden

  • Sports & outdoor (very strong category due to lifestyle habits)

  • Beauty & personal care (fast-growing online penetration)

  • Toys & baby products

Premium and sustainable products perform particularly well, as Swiss consumers show strong interest in quality, durability and eco-responsible brands.
