Today Clas Ohlson opened a new store in Gothenburg, Sweden

At 10 am today, Clas Ohlson opened its 89th store in Sweden, as customers entered the new store at Backaplan, Gothenburg.

The store at Backaplan, on Hisingen in Gothenburg, has been long awaited and is now officially opened.

“Backaplan is one of the largest shopping centres in Sweden, where we previously haven’t been present, so it feels very good to open up the new store. The project team has done a great job with the preparations and we look forward to welcoming customers into the store,” says Fredrik Uhrbom, Country Manager, Clas Ohlson Sweden.

Clas Ohlson's store at Backaplan has a retail space of slightly more than 900 square meters and creates an additional shopping opportunity for customers in Gothenburg, especially residents on Hisingen.
