Swiss Entrepreneurship From Founding Fathers to Future Frontiers

In 2019, Swiss companies that make expensive goods showed how good they

are by having the best net profit margin compared to their competitors

around the world. This amazing success gave them a strong base as they started

out on a difficult journey in 2020. Swiss companies continued to shine in many

different areas, but especially in the gold and watch industries. According to the

respected Deloitte Global Powers of Luxury Goods Top 100 list for this year,

they made up an amazing 32% of all companies in this field.The Swiss were really

noticeable in the world of expensive goods. With two companies in the top ten

and a total of ten companies making a name for themselves, Switzerland was

responsible for 13.2% of the total sales of luxury goods by the top 100 companies.

Compared to the previous year, this was a big jump, which shows that Swiss

companies continue to grow and gain power. But it's important to note that the

Swatch Group was a significant exception to this upward trend. They had a 3%

drop in growth, so they fell from 8th to 10th place in this year's list.Even though

this was a small loss, the Swiss luxury jeweller Richard Mille came out on top,

racing to the top of the list of the 20 fastest-growing companies. With a growth

rate of 200%, Richard Mille's story of success captured the luxury goods business

around the world.
