What ExpoLog Geneva SA does
ExpoLog Geneva SA is a privately held Swiss logistics services company founded in 2019 and headquartered inside the Palexpo exhibition center in Le Grand-Saconnex, Geneva. The company operates as the exclusive official on-site handler at Palexpo Geneva, providing integrated logistics services to exhibitors, freight forwarders, stand fitters, and event organizers during build-up, live, and dismantling phases. Its service portfolio spans customs clearance (including ATA Carnet and transit document processing), transport coordination (air, land, and sea to Palexpo), professional handling (loading/unloading, fine positioning, heavy and remote crane operations), and empties and storage management, both on-site at Palexpo and at off-site facilities near the venue.
The company's core technology is an Online Booking Platform (accessible via expolog-digital.com) that allows exhibitors and freight forwarders to register vehicle arrivals, reserve time slots, and order service modules in advance of each event. The platform is the digital ordering layer wrapped around what is otherwise an operational, labor-driven service business; ExpoLog employs 6 staff and does not list any AI/ML capabilities, patents, or third-party technology integrations. Its only disclosed strategic partnership is with Palexpo Geneva itself, which grants it venue-wide exclusivity and frames the entire go-to-market.
Revenue is generated through event-based professional services fees for customs, transport, handling, and storage work performed at Palexpo Geneva; pricing is not publicly disclosed and quotes are produced per event. The company reaches customers through its on-site presence at Palexpo, direct relationships with event organizers, and the multilingual (French, English, German) website. Its operating geography is concentrated in Geneva, Switzerland, serving a calendar of 25+ events annually including marquee exhibitions such as Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS), Watches & Wonders, EBACE, EPHJ, and Les Automnales, across luxury watches, automotive, aviation, healthcare, and lifestyle end-markets.

ExpoLog Geneva SA competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- CEVA Logistics: CEVA Logistics offers specialized exhibition and event logistics including freight, customs, and on-site handling across multiple venues worldwide. Direct overlap with ExpoLog's customs and handling services for trade show exhibitors.
- DHL Trade Fairs & Events: DHL operates a dedicated Trade Fairs & Events division offering global freight, customs brokerage, and on-site logistics for exhibitions. Overlaps with ExpoLog's customs clearance and transport coordination services, but at global scale across many venues.
- DB Schenker (Fairs & Exhibitions): DB Schenker provides specialized fairs, exhibitions, and event logistics including customs, transport, and on-site handling across European venues. Overlaps with ExpoLog's integrated event logistics model at a much larger, multi-venue scale.
- Kuehne+Nagel: Kuehne+Nagel runs a dedicated Events & Trade Fairs logistics practice providing customs, transport, and on-site services for exhibitions. Comparable to ExpoLog's integrated service bundle, though embedded in a global forwarding network rather than venue-exclusive.
Direct peers
- GES (Global Experience Specialists): GES is a global exhibition services company providing on-site logistics, freight handling, customs, and installation services for trade shows and events. Directly comparable to ExpoLog's on-site handler model at Palexpo, just at much larger global scale.

Emerging players
- Delta Exhibition Services: Delta Exhibition Services provides freight forwarding, customs, and on-site handling for exhibitors at European trade fairs. Comparable service scope to ExpoLog, typically serving multiple venues rather than holding exclusivity at one.
Regional players
- Messe Frankfurt (Exhibition Logistics): Messe Frankfurt operates major German exhibition venues with associated in-house logistics services for exhibitors (customs, handling, storage). Comparable venue-exclusive handler model to ExpoLog, but operating in Germany rather than Switzerland.
- RAI Amsterdam (Exhibition Logistics): RAI Amsterdam is a major Dutch exhibition venue with in-house and partner-provided on-site logistics services for exhibitors. Comparable single-venue exclusive handler concept to ExpoLog's Palexpo arrangement, but in the Netherlands.
