Axel Johnson builds strong and long-term businesses that contribute to addressing societal challenges of our time. Through long-term, active, and value-driven ownership, we want to influence and, together with our companies, be a positive force for change.
Axel Johnson operates as a decentralized organization with resources and operational responsibilities in every respective company. Currently, we have five group companies operating in different sectors, but the common thread among them is that they all operate in meaningful industries. Our primary task, in relation to our companies, is to support and challenge them. By looking ahead, we can seize the opportunities that lie around the corner and ensure sustainable growth for the coming decades.
Axel Johnson International is an industrial group that acquires and develops companies in strategically selected niche markets.
