About ourselves

The Tropic House plays a leading role in the utilisation of renewable energy in the Alpine area. It grows fish and fruit and, as a model operation, is the centre of expertise for the communication of the subjects and services associated with this in a way that can be both felt and experienced.

The Tropic House Frutigen project was started with a feasibility study in 2002, and the start-up company Tropic House Frutigen AG, with offices in in Frutigen, was founded in 2003.

Logical planning and preparation work resulted in the ground-breaking ceremony taking place in May 2008, and we will be opening the Tropic House Frutigen on the 21st November 2009.
