Fancy gastronomy with adrenaline?

Forget dusty gastro-standards: At Ullrich Hospitality AG based in Arlesheim BL, we create experiences that stay in the memory! As one of the leading event catering companies Switzerland-wide, we bring unique concepts to life - from stylish galas and exclusive corporate events to thumping large-scale events with up to 6'500 guests to cool street food projects. Whether in our own event locations or at our customers' sites.

We combine the strength of a market leader with the freedom and dynamism of a modern lifestyle business. You won't find a rigid routine here, but rather a young, ambitious team with a real hands-on mentality: we support each other, think differently, and bring top performance to where the celebration happens.

Ullrich Hospitality belongs to Ullrich Enterprise AG. Two other companies operate under its umbrella. In addition to the event sector, we are also strong in the back office: Ullrich TreuhandGmbH manages mandates from a wide variety of industries and ensures order and clarity - from financial accounting and controlling to human resources.

Ullrich Konzepte GmbH acts as a strategic impulse provider, supports companies in business development, and develops innovative gastro-concepts that reach far beyond the edge of the plate.
