Scopecol is a global manufacturer of optical instruments and imaging systems, known for its rifle scopes, spotting scopes, and surveying equipment. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, the company maintains manufacturing facilities in Europe and North America and distributes products through a network of dealers and online channels. Scopecol markets its products to outdoor enthusiasts, professionals in surveying and construction, and military and law enforcement customers, emphasizing durability, optical performance, and ease of use.

The company traces its origins to the early 1990s when a team of optical engineers founded Scopecol to advance precision lens design. It broadened from lenses into complete scope systems during the 2000s, adding digital features and modular architectures. In the 2010s Scopecol released a series of rifle scopes with illuminated reticles and enhanced water and fog resistance, followed by a line of digital spotting scopes and field-portable survey instruments. In recent years the company has focused on integration of electronics with optics, including rangefinding, image stabilization, and augmented-reality style overlays through compatible apps and accessories.

Scopecol operates as a private company with regional sales subsidiaries and contract manufacturers. Its products are commonly found in hunting and sport shooting markets, as well as professional fields such as land surveying and construction. The brand faces competition from established optics manufacturers and is noted for emphasizing durability and service, though pricing and product availability can vary by region.
