Cross-border comparison

Avia either side of the border .

Two networks of incomparable size only compare at equal population. Brought back to 100,000 inhabitants, the counts become readable side by side — and the gap points either to room for development or to saturation.

Reading the figures

The 466 stations are a record drawn from Foursquare Open Places, not a count published by the brand — this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish.

The reach indicators — coverage, index by canton — are robust to that bias: they measure a distance and a population, which a location described twice does not move. Recorded 23 August 2026.

Frequently asked questions about Avia in Switzerland

Tout ce que vous devez savoir sur nos solutions.

How many stations does Avia have in Switzerland?

The record of 23 August 2026 identifies 466 Avia stations in Switzerland, across 27 cantons. This is a record, not an official count: this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish. The figure serves to compare networks rather than to count stores.

What share of Switzerland does Avia reach?

79.8 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of an Avia, and 91.7 % within 10 kilometres. Coverage counts each population cell once, however many locations reach it, which makes it insensitive to the double-counting that affects raw location totals.

Is Avia denser in Switzerland or in France?

Per 100,000 inhabitants, Avia has 5.22 stations in Switzerland against 1.08 in France — a density 382 % higher. Both records come from the same source and the same method, which is the condition for the gap to mean anything.
