PETER GRUPPE

What PETER GRUPPE does

PETER GRUPPE is a privately held Swiss holding company (Peter-Holding Schweiz, headquartered in Wahlen, Basel-Landschaft) formed in 2021 to consolidate four garden construction firms — Göldi AG (Winterthur), Peter Meier Gartenbau AG (Rapperswil), Oesch Gartenbau AG (Rümlang), and NaturDesign AG — with two trading and distribution entities, Top Mineral AG (sand and construction materials supply across Switzerland and neighboring countries) and Rohr Beteiligungs AG. The group's core business is professional garden construction, landscape architecture, sports field building and renovation, and pool construction, supplemented by a building materials supply arm.

The group's product portfolio centers on garden and landscape services delivered through the subsidiary brands, the eco-pool chemical-free pool system and compact Badebrunnen bathing fountains (3x2 to 6x2.4 meters, with cold, warm, or saltwater options) as residential water-feature offerings, and full pool lifecycle services from permitting and excavation through ongoing water care. Top Mineral AG provides the materials backbone — sand and aggregates delivered to construction sites across Switzerland and into neighboring countries. Notable execution capabilities are demonstrated through large municipal projects including the City of Winterthur's Schützenwiese stadium renovation (new turf and drainage) and the City of Zürich's Sechseläutenplatz tree-planting work.

Revenue mechanics are project-based and quote-driven, with no public pricing or recurring-revenue contract structures disclosed. The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, with the Nacht der Gärten annual client event (200-250 guests) and the Spuren print publication series serving as primary brand and customer-engagement channels. Customer segments split between private residential and commercial property owners (the primary base) and a secondary mix of municipal, education, and equestrian enterprise clients. Marketing and sales operate through each subsidiary's own regional website plus event hosting and content marketing rather than digital advertising or e-commerce.
