Who we are
Why RS Handelsvertretung exists
Behind every request are people. This is our story – and where we are going.
How it all began
Two worlds
I have lived in India, Germany and Switzerland, and came to know two worlds that meet far too rarely: manufacturers who build with skill and pride – and buyers who are looking for good solutions.
The first plan
Early on, I wanted to start my own company together with a partner from the USA. It was too early. But the wish to bring people and companies together across borders stayed with me.
Learning the trade
In online trade I learned the craft: finding products, comparing suppliers, selling to customers. So I know both the buying and the selling side.
The number that changed everything
When I began to read purchase requests and tenders across Europe systematically, one number stood out: more than 40 % of items received just a single offer. Suitable manufacturers existed – they simply did not know, or forms in a foreign language put them off.
Founding the company
That is why I founded RS Handelsvertretung in Menziken, Switzerland: independent, commission only, with clear written agreements.
The first partners
Manufacturers from Europe and Asia have placed their trust in me. Together we have submitted the first tender offers – with translation, forms and questions to the buyer.
Today
Every day I read new requests, check conditions and costs, and look for the manufacturer that truly fits. Behind every request are people: a buyer who needs a solution, and an entrepreneur who hopes their work will be seen. For both, I want to be the one who answers, says honestly what fits – and stays with it.
Our vision
- 01
Every request deserves more than one offer.
In a large European procurement database, more than 40 % of items received just a single offer. More suitable offers mean better prices and better quality for the buyer – and new customers for good manufacturers.
- 02
Opening Europe – for small makers too.
Forms, platforms and foreign languages should never be the reason not to bid. I take care of the paperwork – the manufacturer focuses on the product.
- 03
We get paid for success only.
No retainer, no upfront costs. I earn only when my client wins an order – so we share the same goal.
- 04
All costs on the table.
Before anyone invests time, deadlines, guarantees, penalties and payment terms are laid out openly. No surprises.
