• Definition: Groupe Chaumont is a consolidation platform in Swiss manufacturing of high-end watchmaking components, created to bring together local manufacturing excellence into an integrated industrial group.

• Objective: Groupe Chaumont aims to become the reference player in high-value-added watchmaking components, in a sector that has historically been fragmented among small, family-run businesses and increasingly affected by a shortage of skilled labor — a trade that requires highly specific technical skills that are not easily replaceable.

• First steps: The project lays its foundations with the acquisition of four Swiss companies — Efteor, Le Composant, Telos Watch, and Henri Robert — each specialized in a specific stage or component of the watchmaking supply chain, establishing the groundwork for a vertically integrated group and paving the way for further acquisitions already in the pipeline.
