Overview of Migros

Vision, Mission & Strategy

Migros is recognised by its customers, its employees and the general public as the leading company for improving quality of life. Our vision: a better life every day.

Migros' consumer and service products are oriented to everyday needs, to all levels of society and their specific needs regarding quality of life.

Our strategy

The strategy sets a framework for the orientation of the Migros Group's strategic business units. It is developed by the Executive Board on behalf of the FMC Board of Directors and approved by the latter. The entire Migros Group is bound by its targets, values and management principles.

Migros' strategic business units and business entities act as stand-alone businesses as far as possible. They are assigned clear objectives and roles, and potential synergies between the businesses are fully exploited.

Strategic initiatives help to create potential for added value, which can be exploited only with a joint, integrated effort.

Our targets

  • We want to remain the undisputed market leader in the Swiss retail sector. In the other business units, we assume a leading position in the corresponding market segment.

    In the spirit of Gottlieb Duttweiler, we undertake to offer our customers the best value for money

    We are committed to offering our customers the best value for money.

    In the Cooperative Retailing sector, we benefit from having full control of large parts of the value-added chain. Accordingly, we operate industrial, logistics and retail enterprises within the group.

    Our industrial companies fulfil a dual role here: they develop and manufacture innovative own brands that offer Swiss quality at fair prices, and sell to third parties in Switzerland and other countries.

    International purchasing allows us to procure products at fair prices, and also take into account ethical and ecological principles.

  • We target growth abroad with the intention of strengthening the existing business units and the Migros Group.
  • We also aim to grow by expanding our digital business models (no-line) and transforming in-store retail.
  • We strive for profitable growth for the Migros Group as a whole.
