Long industrial-style table — wedding catering with chandeliers Fish en papillote from WIO-Catering — Michelin-calibre craft

Three countries, one kitchen

Where we work — DE, CH, FR

Our base is in Grenzach-Wyhlen — about ten kilometres east of Basel, at the borders with Switzerland and France. What for guests is a journey, for us is the everyday. We work cross-border without you noticing it in the flow of the event.

Cross-border logistics

The border as routine, not as an obstacle

Customs & VAT

For events into Switzerland we handle customs and VAT. On request, invoice in CHF with correct VAT. In Alsace we invoice according to local rules.

Staff

Our service team comes from our WIO houses — at home in the cross-border setting: German, English, French as needed. No agency staff, no language barrier.

Logistics

Tableware, furniture and mobile kitchen across the border. Pick-up the next business day. Transport plan and loading zones — we know them.

Michelin team — international in the Three Borders region

Three countries, one team

We speak
as the region speaks.

In the Three Borders region, High German is just one language among several. Swiss German, Markgräfler dialect, French and English — our team understands them all. Catering in Basel, we speak to guests in CH logic; in Alsace, in French; with UK or international guests, in English; in southern Baden, directly. That makes the difference on the day.

Three Borders sites

Where we cater in the Three Borders region

Regularly in Basel-Stadt, Riehen, Bettingen and Möhlin. On request in southern Alsace around Saint-Louis and Huningue. Also Pratteln and Augst. Overview of towns on the Region page.

FAQ

Three Borders — frequently asked questions

Question
01 Do you work on both sides of the border for the same event? +
Yes. Ceremony in Riehen, reception in the Markgräflerland, dinner in Basel — we follow your choreography. Cross-border is our everyday.
02 How do customs and VAT work? +
For events into Switzerland we handle customs and VAT. You receive a clean invoice — in CHF on request, with Swiss VAT correctly stated. In Alsace we invoice according to local rules. You don’t deal with the border; we handle it day in, day out.
03 Do you have French-speaking staff? +
Our service team comes from our WIO houses and speaks, as required, German, English and French. For trinational guest lists we tailor the team — welcome, course explanations and farewell match your guests.
04 Do you also cover Alsace? +
On request for Saint-Louis, Huningue and around. For larger events with enough lead time, we work as far as Mulhouse and beyond. We handle the logistics and paperwork.
05 Recommended lead time for a trinational event? +
For a full event with venues in two countries, 6 to 12 months are ideal — the logistical alignment is more complex. Shorter is possible too; we’ll tell you straight whether the date works.
