Early Findings
The largest employers in Switzerland based on their employees are Migros with
89,671
employees and Coop with
89,579
employees.
An extensive review of industry sources, some of which can be found

, indicates that a

list of the largest factories in Switzerland or companies with the highest number of factory workers in Switzerland is not available.
Hence, we approached the research by finding the largest
manufacturing companies
and
chemical manufacturing companies
(including

companies) in Switzerland by employees using Glassdoor. While Glassdoor provides their global employees, it provided us the names of the companies to begin with.
Our next step was to find out the number of employees and the number of factories or manufacturing/production facilities of each of these companies in Switzerland.
Using this method, we were able to cover 4 companies.
Nestle:
9,666 employees, 11 factories
.
Novartis:
13,000 employees, 3 production
sites.
Philip Morris International (PMI):
3,000+
employees,
1
production site.
