Cross-border comparison

BP 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 369 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 BP in Switzerland

Tout ce que vous devez savoir sur nos solutions.

How many stations does BP have in Switzerland?

The record of 23 August 2026 identifies 369 BP stations in Switzerland, across 26 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 BP reach?

79.2 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of a BP, and 95.5 % 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 BP denser in Switzerland or in France?

Per 100,000 inhabitants, BP has 4.14 stations in Switzerland against 0.66 in France — a density 525 % higher. Both records come from the same source and the same method, which is the condition for the gap to mean anything.
