The Issues of the Industrial Sector
The Swiss industry is recognized as a worldwide leader with its extensive cartelization and export activities:
50% of the world’s watch production comes from Swiss manufacturers. The chemical industry, which specializes in coloring agents, perfumes and flavors, has turned Basel into its metropolis. The machinery industry is the country’s first industrial employer, exporting 78% of the production.
A host to major international producers, Switzerland is a stronghold of the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries.
