Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to open a restaurant in Switzerland?
Depending on the concept, roughly CHF 50,000–100,000 for a take-away and CHF 120,000–280,000 for a full-service restaurant (2026 estimates). The kitchen is often 30–45% of the total.
Which permits do I need?
A cantonal operating licence, in some cantons a restaurateur certificate (Wirtepatent), plus food-safety registration. Rules differ by canton; we help you prepare the paperwork.
How long does it take?
Typically 4–10 weeks depending on scope and permits. Smaller take-away or kitchen projects can sometimes be done in 4–6 weeks.
How is payment structured?
In stages: 50% on order, 30% on delivery and 20% on handover.
