Luck in misfortune – that’s how the situation for Swiss Lachs AG can be summarised. The landslide in Lostallo caused enormous damage and much suffering in the valley, but our facilities remained unscathed. In these difficult times, we would like to express our deepest sympathy to the families and loved ones of the victims. Our thoughts are with them and we hope that they can find comfort and support at this time.
Thanks to the effective support of the local authorities and our farm team’s effective emergency plans, we were able to take all the necessary safety measures in good time. Despite massive amounts of water and several hours of power cuts, we managed to minimise the impact on our operations.
Our operations are continuing as normal and our production processes have not been affected. The Farm Shop in Lostallo is open and easily accessible from the south via the N13 motorway at the Lostallo exit. The Farm Shop can be reached from the north via the cantonal road.
And for all those customers who cannot reach us by car: You can also order our tried and tested Swiss salmon specialities online! All orders placed before 12.00 noon leave our premises on the same day and are delivered to you fresh and chilled the following day by overnight express.
