SUGRO – Your partner for high quality ingredients since 1929

As a tradition rich company from Basel, we are the at the heart of the trade with ingredients for the Swiss industrial companies. Find out more about our history and what makes us unique.

How do you begin a successful working day? An easy question for SUGRO employees: with an update on the projects over coffee and then everyone gets on with their own tasks.

Teamwork and communication are two values that are very dear and important to us. And it has served you and us well: for almost a century, we have been successfully importing various ingredients, additives and specialty items from Europe and overseas to deliver them ready for use in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. We provide our customers with holistic advice so that they may concentrate fully on their day-to-day business.

Originally, SUGRO focused on the chemical industry in the region of Basel and the Swiss paper industry. Over the years, however, the business has adapted to changes in the market and shifted its focus to the industry sectors: food & beverage, processing aids & chemicals, pharmaceutical and cosmetics.

Consulting, collaborating, celebrating successes together

Our years of experience and our commitment to providing the highest quality standards make us a reliable partner for you. We understand your needs and offer customized solutions which optimally support your manufacturing processes.

And most importantly: We don’t just trade in ingredients, we actively think ahead with and for you. We carry out diligent analyses of your requirements, suggest various products which respond to your preferences and help you select the right ingredient. We also carry out the order and the delivery.

After the project has been completed, we stay in regular contact with you to ensure that everything is running smoothly.

We do all this thanks to our agile and reliable team – and perhaps a bit thanks to our morning coffee.
