Actona<\/a><\/strong> is investing further in consolidating its place in Europe’s upholstery industry.<\/p>\nLess than six months ago, the group, which is owned by JYSK’s parent, Lars Larsen Group, officially acquired upholstery manufacturer Theca, which operates from production facilities in Lithuania.<\/p>\n
Now\u00a0Actona is expanding further by acquiring SITS, whose headquarters and production facilities are based in and around Brodnica in northern Poland.<\/p>\n
\u201dIt is no secret that we have set the bar high, with our financial goal of doubling our business within a few years,\u201d says the CEO of Actona Group, Jimmi Mortensen. “Therefore targeted acquisitions are a central part of our strategy, and SITS can bring strong competences and new growth possibilities to the group\u00a0that complement our existing business and future growth plans.”<\/p>\n
SITS\u00a0was founded\u00a0by Erik and Marianne N\u00e4sstr\u00f6m in 1993.\u00a0Today, the company employs approximately 2000 people and operates\u00a0in a number of European countries\u00a0via various retailers.<\/p>\n
\u201dWith SITS in the portfolio we are able to strengthen our upholstery division significantly and create a number of synergies across the group such as more efficient production, better sourcing of materials, expanded sales channels, and increased capacity,\u201d says Jimmi.<\/p>\n
Erik N\u00e4sstr\u00f6m adds:\u00a0\u201dThe family is very pleased to have found a new home for SITS with similar values of the employees’ appreciation and fair business. We thank all our colleagues, clients and suppliers for 30 years together, and look forward to following the development of SITS as part of Actona Group. We are certain this will benefit both companies and be a great success!\u201d<\/p>\n
The transaction is expected to be approved by competition authorities within the coming months.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
