AB Volvo: Volvo Construction Equipment acquires Swecon

Volvo

Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) has come to an agreement with Lantmännen to acquire the Swecon's business operations in Sweden, Germany and the Baltics including Entrack. Volvo CE will pay 7 billion SEK for the acquisition, which is subject to regulatory approval. Closing of the deal is anticipated in second half of 2025.

The acquisition includes Swecon's business scope in these markets, i.e. sales of products and services, rental operations, aftermarket services & support to customers as well as offices, workshop facilities and 1,400 employees. 

Volvo CE sees this as a strategic move to further invest in retail operations in key markets; Germany, which is Europe's largest construction equipment market, Sweden, Volvo CE's home market as well as Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. In addition to the currently owned retail operations footprint, this acquisition will mean Volvo CE will own and manage the majority of the company's business in Europe, making retail core for Volvo CE in Europe. 

"At this time of transformation of our industry where our competitiveness is put to test, directly collaborating with our customers is even more important to be successful, and through the acquisition of Swecon we believe we can drive an enhanced customer satisfaction", says Melker Jernberg, Head of Volvo CE.

Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative with diverse activities in agriculture, energy, food and machinery. For the full year of 2024 Swecon revenues amounted to 10 billion SEK. Entrack is a provider of aftermarket products, independently and fully owned by Lantmännen.
