Shareholders

Almost 100 years ago, the “Swiss Association of Soldiers’ Welfare” (Schweizer Verband Soldatenwohl) began a unique social and entrepreneurial commitment. This led to the creation of SV Group AG in 1999, a market-focused company, and the perfectly positioned SV Foundation. This charitable foundation is the majority shareholder of the SV Group and uses its funds to support projects in the area of healthy eating and public welfare.
