Our activities

Six companies. One market architecture.

Each entity has a trade, a director and a P&L. The group provides the network, the cash and the standards. Here's who does what.

ENTITY 01 / 06 · COMMERCE & SOURCING

Deep-Mate

The parent entity. From the Chinese factory to your European warehouse, with no opaque middlemen.

Critical outsourcing

Deep-Mate is the backbone of the group. Fifteen years of supplier relationships across Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu, with factory visits every quarter. All physical flows run through this entity.

The flow is invariable: supplier audit, product qualification, negotiation, LCL or FCL, FOB or EXW, pre-shipment quality control, transit, Swiss and EU customs, final delivery. One contract signed in Clarens.

No resold catalogue. No algorithmic marketplace. Direct, targeted sourcing by operators who spend as much time in factories as behind a screen.

Sourcing for third parties

You want to source from China, but not a full container.

That is exactly why Deep-Mate exists.

We consolidate volumes from several SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland into our own containers. You get a large-importer price without filling 67 m³ yourself.

Logistics, quality control, customs, transit, all run through our existing flow. You collect your goods at your warehouse, ready to sell.

For whom

Industrial SMEs sourcing through an agent who want to take back control.
E-commerce players who need small qualified batches rather than full containers.
Specialist distributors who want to add a reference without disrupting their main stock.
Architects and engineering offices with a specific product to manufacture for a project.

Pooling, not marketplace

No shared catalogue, no platform. Each client has their own supplier, specifications and quality control. We only pool what must be pooled: container, transit, customs.

What you keep

Your supplier relationship if you already have one
Your product specifications
Your margin and selling prices
Your brand and your customers

What you stop managing

Container negotiation and Incoterms
Pre-shipment quality control
Transit and CH/EU customs clearance
Customs and logistics hiccups

Business Development

We build the markets of our brands.

The group does more than operate entities. Each brand plays an active role in its segment: market-share moves, channel openings, commercial structuring. These are the three engines behind that.

Coverage

VortexIA is the digital and AI arm of the Deep-Mate group. Its method is invariable: on-the-ground audit first, then identification of the highest-impact levers, then fast deployment on what actually moves the numbers.

End-to-end coverage: AI agents, business automation on Odoo and CRMs, websites that convert, measurable SEO, digital presence, paid acquisition, content. Always adapted to how the business actually runs, never the other way around.

Playing field: SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland with an ERP or a CRM, who want production-grade systems within the first month rather than a white paper.

Avepto is the group's IT arm: managed services, VoIP telephony, network security, Microsoft 365 and Infomaniak K-Suite for SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland. A team you reach by phone, not a ticket queue.

Four stated differentiators: hosting in certified Swiss data centres, 24/7 monitoring under a contractual SLA, daily backups with a recovery plan tested every six months, and a single point of contact for the whole stack.

Natural synergy with VortexIA: Avepto secures the infrastructure on which the agents and automations run. The client signs one group-level contract.
