RSH

What RSH does

RSH SA is a Swiss private company headquartered in Crissier (canton of Vaud) that delivers premium, "three-star" quality food experiences outside a traditional restaurant setting. Founded in 2001 and operating with a headcount of 11-50, the company runs two complementary business lines under distinct sub-brands: "RSH traiteur" and "RSH épicerie fine." RSH traiteur is a nomadic, mobile catering service for weddings, corporate events, company evenings, birthdays, and private at-home dining, led by Chefs Lazare Saguer and Michel Hug, who produce personalized cocktail dînatoires, gastronomic menus, and gourmet buffets. Service coverage spans all of Switzerland — Lausanne, Geneva, Bern, Basel, Zurich, Gstaad, and Saint-Moritz — as well as broader European destinations.

The second line, RSH épicerie fine, is an artisanal packaged-food range signed by Chef Philippe Rochat and manufactured by the RSH chefs in the company's Crissier kitchen using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. The product range includes jams, preserves, and gourmet items available for online purchase with home delivery, plus customizable corporate gift boxes that open a B2B gifting vertical. All production is centralized in a single Crissier-based kitchen, which the company describes as its preparation facility.

RSH generates revenue through two channels: a direct, field-based catering service targeting enterprise event buyers and high-end individual hosts, and a global e-commerce storefront serving both consumer gifting and corporate gifting demand. Marketing is conducted primarily through Facebook, Instagram, and the rsh-sa.com corporate website. The company is owner-operated by its founding chefs with no disclosed parent, institutional investor, or external funding, and appears active with operational website, e-commerce, and contact infrastructure.

• Dalloyau: Historic French maison combining premium event catering with a fine food and pastry retail network. The dual service-plus-retail model with chef-signed products maps almost directly onto RSH's Traiteur and Épicerie Fine offerings.
• Lenôtre: Iconic French premium caterer and épicerie fine brand serving weddings, corporate events, and luxury hospitality. Operates an event catering business plus a network of fine food retail points-of-sale, mirroring RSH's two-pillar model.
• Traiteur de Paris: French upscale event caterer focused on weddings, corporate receptions, and refined on-site service. Comparable to RSH in its event-led, premium service positioning and on-location delivery model.

• Hédiard: Historic French luxury épicerie fine specializing in preserves, jams, and gourmet gifts. Directly comparable to RSH Épicerie Fine for the preserves/jams product line and corporate gifting positioning.

Regional players

• Sprüngli: Iconic Swiss luxury chocolatier and confectioner headquartered in Zurich with confiseries and cafés. Comparable in its premium Swiss food positioning and gift-box commerce, overlapping RSH's corporate gift and luxury Swiss customer base.
