Avia
Avia was established in 1927 as a Swiss company focused on petroleum imports and vehicle-related products. The firm deploys capital into energy infrastructure including gas station networks, industrial storage, and EV charging stations. Confirmed positions include AVIA VOLT truck chargers and partnerships with Förderverein H2 Mobilität Schweiz for hydrogen mobility. Geographic footprint covers Switzerland and extends through AVIA International members in 15 European countries. No team size or additional offices are disclosed. Avia Stiftung operates as the associated philanthropic vehicle. A 2024 acceptance partnership with DKV Mobility expanded card usage at Avia stations. The corporate structure ties investment decisions directly to operating businesses in fuel distribution and mobility infrastructure rather than external fund commitments.
