Switzerland seeks trade deal with Trump without getting into EU bind

By Dave Graham ZURICH (Reuters) -Switzerland is exploring what concessions it can make to secure a deal with Washington on trade, but it must tread carefully to protect its interests with key trading partner, the European Union, politicians and people familiar with the matter said. The Swiss cabinet last month approved its biggest trade policy overhaul in years with the EU, two months after the U.S. stunned Switzerland by announcing 31% tariffs - well above the 20% rate Washington set out for the 27-nation bloc. That shock prompted a scramble by business leaders and officials to underline how much Switzerland invests in the United States and the tariff threat was suspended for a 90-day period ending July 9. Talks are continuing. Nicolas Walder, a Greens member of the lower house of parliament's foreign policy committee, said Switzerland must insist on its commitment to multilateralism with the U.S. "A deal should not interfere with any agreement that Switzerland has signed or wants to sign, and should specifically mention the bilateral agreement with the EU," said Walder, whose committee is regularly briefed on the trade talks. The Swiss mandate for negotiating with the U.S. stipulates that relations with its other trade partners be upheld. Any U.S. deal must be compatible with Switzerland's future relations with the EU, a Swiss source familiar with the matter said. Swiss officials and lawmakers believe that a 31% tariff can be averted, but say U.S. President Donald Trump's existing 10% baseline tariff looks likely to stay. "Switzerland is negotiating in good faith with the U.S. government, aiming for a positive outcome," the Swiss Economy Ministry said in a statement in response to questions on the points made by Reuters in this article. The EU trade agreement faces a lengthy approval process and is almost certain to be put to a national referendum under Switzerland's system of direct democracy. CONCESSIONS Trump's unpredictable approach to trade policy has been a challenge for Switzerland, which abolished its own industrial tariffs last year and sets great store by adherence to rules. Eager to offer Trump something, Switzerland is exploring granting concessions to the U.S., such as greater market access for produce like seafood and citrus fruits, the source said. Home to pharmaceutical giants Roche and Novartis - both big U.S. investors - Switzerland also knows Washington has been investigating trade practices in the sector and does not want any deal to be muddied later by pharma tariffs, the source said. "This is absolutely crucial," said Simon Michel, a federal lawmaker and CEO of medical technology company Ypsomed. Jean-Philippe Kohl, deputy director of industry association Swissmem, said even if only a 10% tariff applies, the dollar's decline against the Swiss franc amid the trade uncertainty was already making exporters' goods dearer in the U.S. And if the EU secured better tariff terms with Washington, that could put Swiss firms at a disadvantage. "It's therefore important that the dialogue with the U.S. quickly lead to a positive outcome," he said.

HKFoods backtracks on plan to sell Polish bacon factory

Following a strategic review, Finnish meat processor HKFoods has decided to keep its bacon production unit in Swinoujście, Poland. In a stock exchange filing published today (3 July), the company said it will 'continue with the current group structure', backtracking on reassessment plans announced in April that could have included a sale of the Swinoujście site. Operated by HKFoods' business in Poland, the Swinoujście plant has around 300 employees, according to the company. HKFoods reiterated its April estimate today that the Polish subsidiary will generate net sales of approximately €70m ($82.3m) in 2025. Commenting on the decision, HKFoods CEO Juha Ruohola said: 'We have invested in the Polish bacon unit over the past years and the profitable unit is in good shape. We have developed the unit's capacity and efficiency by investing in a slicing and packaging line in 2024, for example. During the first half of 2025, we have also continued our investment in increasing the added value of our Polish operations and our property development project. 'Following the extensive restructuring, we are now focusing on implementing our strategy in the HKFoods Group's operations in Finland and Poland, improving the competitiveness of our core business and the profitability of our operations, in addition to commercial activities." The company had said in April that the assessment was part of its ongoing evaluation of its group structure 'aimed at strengthening the group's balance sheet'. The Finnish meat processor has undergone significant restructuring in recent years to bolster its financial flexibility, including selling its businesses in the Baltics, Sweden, and Denmark. In May last year, the company signed a deal to sell its Danish subsidiary to Plukon Food Group, a Netherlands-based poultry group, for €44.6m. HKFoods also sold its Swedish business to local agri-food group Lantmännen in January 2024. The company's 2024 financial results, published in February, showed net sales from continuing operations of €1bn, up 7.4% from the previous year, driven by 'good' consumer demand and 'successful' commercial activities. EBITDA from continuing operations rose to €56.3m, a 24.8% increase from 2023, while the loss for the period narrowed to €1.8m from €17.3m in 2023. Losses turned positive in the most recent results issued in May for the first quarter of 2025. HKFoods delivered a net profit of €0.8m versus a €3.8m loss a year earlier. Sales climbed 2.2% to €233.7m in the three months to 31 March, while EBITDA from continuing operations rose 36% to €12.1m. In March, HKFoods also closed a slaughterhouse in the town of Paimio, Finland, as cattle numbers declined. Operations conducted by the company's Paimion Teurastamo business were to be transferred to the 'external service provider' Liha Hietanen in Sastamala by 31 March, HKFoods said in a statement.
