Founder
Christian Forrer is the founder and owner of Vivi Kola and ViCAFE. As he says of himself, the company is like his child. He built the company from scratch with a lot of passion and commitment. As a trained graphic designer, he has an eye for aesthetics and this is reflected in the company. His heart also beats for adventurous expeditions. Especially the multifaceted Africa fascinates him a lot. On his trips he usually only spends the night in a tent in the wild. He gained the essential knowledge for this through a ranger training in Africa.

Adrian is Head of Finance at Vivi Kola. Besides numbers and coffee, his passions include travel and food - fortunately, they can be combined wonderfully. As a result, his adrenaline level rises, especially when he's doing sports or having a charming verbal sparring match with his colleagues. And he does win this one (almost) every time, thanks to his humor and insight.

Camilo Antezana
Strategic Advisor
Camilo belongs to the old guard and has experienced the revival firsthand. As a young boy, he had his first experience in his grandfather's wine bottling plant. In his sleep, he would talk aloud about fine grape juices. As if he had already known then that he would build up the Vivi Manufactory at a later date. Rumor has it that he still talks in his sleep today - this time about fine Vivi Kola.
Edon Alidemaj
Logistics
Growing up in France, Edon trained as a chauffeur for all possible vehicle categories. His great love has brought him to Switzerland and now he maneuvers the huge Vivi Kola truck through the narrowest alleys. His flair for vehicles of all sizes is immediately noticeable. You could almost say - gasoline flows through his veins.

Cécile Zwinggi
Disposition
E-Mail: bestellung@vivikola.ch
Among other things, Cécile is responsible for the orders at Vivi Kola. Her grandfather was already a lorry driver at the former mineral spring in Eglisau and delivered Vivi Kola all over Switzerland. What she can't stand is stepping on her children's Lego bricks at night. This pain is probably familiar to many.
