External president appointed

Everything had gone at a rapid pace, with expansion, establishment trips, purchasing trips, construction etc., and with a small organisation. We were on track, but at the same time we had sharp growing pains. We had been highly placed in the list of Sweden’s super companies for seven to eight years. I felt that someone else could take part, pull their weight and bring in a few new ideas.

It feels really good to welcome Johan Åberg to the company. The choice of Johan Åberg, with his solid background as a business manager, strong focus on the customer and his passion for retailing, feels very good. We have fantastic staff and well functioning logistics with our new central warehouse. We are in the process of trimming in our new business system, and with the new head office in place the future looks undeniably bright. After being involved with the company for 30 years I will continue to take an active part and I’m looking forward with Johan’s help to leading Jula into the future.
