Aeschlimann AG

What Aeschlimann AG does

Aeschlimann AG is a family-owned Swiss general construction company (Baugeschäft) headquartered in Sumiswald, Canton of Bern, tracing its origins to 1920. It operates across five integrated service lines: Hochbau (residential and commercial building construction), Tiefbau (civil engineering, road construction, excavation), Umbau und Renovationen (renovations and conversions), Gartenbau (landscaping and garden maintenance since 1997), and an owned-and-operated Kieswerk (gravel pit and concrete plant at Gammenthal). The company also runs a steel and locksmith workshop and offers specialised services including concrete drilling, demolition, steel construction, and winter snow removal.

The business serves private homeowners (single-family and multi-family homes), property developers (Büünde Immobilien AG, Colina), commercial and industrial clients (Albiro AG, Landi Region Aemme, Allemann Automobil AG, Nyffenegger Holz AG, Hotel Moosegg AG), banking and public-sector clients (Bernerland Bank, Gemeinde Sumiswald, Einwohnergemeinde Sumiswald), and the agricultural sector (mountain barns, pasture troughs). It generates project-based, quote-driven revenue from construction contracts and recurring transactional revenue from external sales of gravel, concrete, sand, and related materials, with a complementary recurring stream from the affiliated Aeschlimann Liegenschaften AG subsidiary handling property sales, rentals, and administration.

Aeschlimann AG employs approximately 20 staff plus four masonry apprentices and operates from a consolidated headquarters, workshop, and materials plant at Gammenthal 676, Sumiswald, with a secondary property-services location in Grünen. The company holds memberships in the EKB Emmentaler Kies- und Betonwerke, the Schweizerischer Baumeisterverband, the Kantonal-Bernischer Baumeisterverband, Baukader Schweiz, and undergoes annual FSK quality audits. All revenue is private and project-based, with no standardised pricing, no public listing, and no disclosed financial figures.
