Swiss telecommunications retailer mobilezone has been awarded the Silver Medal by sustainability ratings provider EcoVadis, improving on last year's Bronze Medal. The assessment, conducted at Group level and covering all units within the mobilezone Group, places the company among the top 15% of companies worldwide of its size assessed by EcoVadis. The award, announced on September 29, 2026, highlights the company's continuous advancement of sustainability management across its operations.
EcoVadis, one of the world's leading providers of sustainability ratings, has been active since 2007 and has certified around 150,000 companies in more than 185 countries based on internationally established standards. Its evaluations cover ecology, social issues, and sustainability, making the Silver Medal a significant benchmark for corporate responsibility. For mobilezone, the recognition reflects systematic efforts in recent years to expand its sustainability structures and processes. Key initiatives include further developing sustainability reporting in line with European ESRS standards, integrating newly acquired group companies into the ESG management framework, and achieving ISO 14001 certification for its environmental management system.
"The Silver Medal is both a recognition of our achievements and an incentive to continue improving," said Bernhard Machler, CFO of mobilezone. "We remain committed to pursuing our chosen path and will continue to integrate sustainability into the development of our business in a targeted and meaningful way." The upgrade from Bronze to Silver demonstrates that the company's investments in ESG are yielding tangible results. Further details on mobilezone's sustainability initiatives are available in its latest Sustainability Report, accessible via https://www.mobilezoneholding.ch/vision/Sustainability.html.
This news matters because sustainability ratings are increasingly used by investors, customers, and partners to evaluate corporate performance. For mobilezone, a leading player in the Swiss telecommunications market with around 700 employees and roughly 125 company-owned shops, the Silver Medal could enhance its reputation and competitiveness. The company's registered shares are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, and strong ESG credentials may attract socially conscious investors. The recognition also underscores the importance of integrating sustainability into business strategy, especially as regulatory pressures around ESG reporting grow.
