Green Landscaping acquires Thormans Entreprenad AB

Green Landscaping GroupAB (publ) has todayacquired Thormans EntreprenadAB, a leading companywithin ground maintenance and landscaping in Östergötland.

Thormans Entreprenad was founded in 2003 and has since the beginning managed outdoor environments for property owners and municipalities. The company has a broad customer portfolio with special emphasis on municipal customers. The company currently has a turnover of just above SEK 100 million on the market, primarily in Östergötland, and has about 100 employees.

• Thormans Entreprenad is a well-known company in the industry and has over the years succeeded with impressive growth. Profitability has, however, taken second place, which is common when the focus has been on growth. Together with the company's management, we have arrived at a new strategy that entails an increased focus on profitability and customer value before growth. Our assessment is that the profitability can be raised significantly through the ongoing strategy change and with the help of the infrastructure that Green Landscaping Group provides, says Johan Nordström, CEO of Green Landscaping Group.

• Since the start, we have been on a fantastic journey building up Thormans Entreprenad from the small company to a larger one with great customers and employees. Becoming part of the Green Landscaping Group is a natural step for us and in that setting continue to develop the company, says Anders Corazza, CEO of Thormans Entreprenad.

• We welcome Anders Corazza, Kirre Strantzalis and their employees to the group and look forward to developing the company together, says Johan Nordström.
