The canton's freight profile combines government and institutional supply chains (federal administration, embassies), the Bern technology cluster (including CSL Behring's plasma-products facility), and the Biel/Bienne watchmaking and precision-engineering hub — home to Swatch Group, Rolex movements and Omega. The Bernese Oberland (Interlaken, Thun) adds tourism-supply and hospitality-equipment demand.
Switzerland is not an EU member — customs clearance is required. SAVA coordinates T1 transit documentation and Swiss customs formalities through licensed broker partners.
Bern, Thun, Biel/Bienne, Burgdorf and Interlaken cover the canton — Biel/Bienne dominates watchmaking freight, Bern handles government and tech supply chains.
