About Axel Johnson

Family business Axel Johnson was founded in 1873 and is now run by the fourth and fifth generations. Every day we interact with more than one and a half million customers who buy goods and services from our affiliated companies.

Our main footprint is within Food, but our businesses span across sectors as diverse as Industrial and IT Solutions, Beauty, Health and Wellness, and Solar energy.

We are currently undergoing the most rapid transformation in our 150 years’ history, pursuing our 10/50 agenda – meaning that in ten years, half of revenue is to come from things that our companies are not doing today.

The today wholly and partly owned companies within Axel Johnson have a total annual turnover of SEK 94.7 billion (2021). All told, our operations employ approximately 25,000 people, which makes Axel Johnson one of the largest trade and service companies in the Nordic region.

The foundation of the Group’s success lies in a combination of impatient and constant renewal, long-term family ownership, profitable organic growth and focus on sustainability with regards to both financials and to societal and environmental impact. The company takes a long-term perspective when building and developing businesses, giving the companies a good chance to grow over time.
