2024

Entrepreneurship and long-term perspective, the foundation of our success.

In this year’s yearbook, we share how our holdings and social initiatives, always guided by entrepreneurship and a long-term approach, have evolved over the year. You’ll also meet some of the dedicated and passionate individuals who, with their work and vision, contribute to the successes we proudly present.

Our holdings

Entrepreneurship and local drive build our success.

We see our ownership as a long-term commitment, without exit plans, and now with the second generation of the Dan Olofsson family at the helm. Since the start in 1986, we have shown how our long-term approach, entrepreneurship and driven employees create long-lasting success. And this is the common denominator for all our holdings.

Continuity creates value on several levels, and worldwide.

Our entrepreneur-driven and decentralised leadership plays an important role in our subsidiary groups being so successful. We encourage local drive and energy in order to create the success that makes us stable, reliable and strong. Both as a group and as an employer.
