Viggarö as an owner
A permanent home focused on entrepreneurship
When we acquire a company, we intend to own it forever.
Managements continue to lead their businesses independently. We do not impose integrations, synergies, or tell them how to operate. Decisions stay with the people closest to the customers and markets.
Stable, non-disruptive development
We do not acquire businesses to change them. We focus on step-by-step and profitable growth rather than rapid expansion that can strain the organization.
Engaged, family ownership
As a family business, our companies are part of our family.
We are owners you can call at any time - available for discussions, present when challenges arise, and straightforward to deal with.
We can provide industrial and operational expertise through the Board of Directors.
Investments into our businesses
All group profits are reinvested in our companies and to expand the group.
As we do not use debt, cash flows are used for our businesses rather than paying a bank.
Opportunity to collaborate across industries
We acquire across industries and are not focused on any single sector. This gives companies’ management the chance to learn from each other and collaborate where they want to.
