Our history
More than a century at the heart of French-Swiss trade.
Founded in 1920 on the Franco-Swiss border, CHARPIOT was built around the mastery of cross-border flows. After several generations of development in France and Europe, the company joined the BBL Group in 2011 to strengthen its expertise and logistics capabilities.
Today, over 100 employees support your transportation, customs clearance, and logistics needs.
