Vevey is a resort town on the Swiss Riviera. It combines cold-peaked mountains with a mild climate. Majestic snow-capped mountains protect the lake from cold winds, making the palm trees growing along the shores of Lake Geneva thrive in this Alpine setting.

This town of 20,000 residents enjoys excellent ecology and a well-developed, diverse infrastructure. In addition to its resort appeal, it is home to numerous offices of renowned European companies.
