Husqvarna Group moves its head office to Hagastaden
Atrium Ljungberg has signed a lease contract with Husqvarna Group for a new head office. The contract covers approximately 2,500 m2 in modern offices in the iconic property Mineralvattenfabriken in Hagastaden.
Husqvarna Group was founded in 1689 and is today a leading global producer of innovative products and solutions for forest, park and garden care. Its product range includes, among other things, robotic lawnmowers, power saws and watering solutions for gardens. Husqvarna Group is also a leader in equipment and diamond tools for the light construction and stone processing industries. The Group's products are sold primarily under the global brands Husqvarna and Gardena in more than 100 countries. Husqvarna Group is now moving its head office to Mineralvattenfabriken in Hagastaden.
“At Husqvarna Group, we are very pleased that Mineralvattenfabriken will be the home of our head office. The location is the perfect fit for “the world’s oldest start-up”, with Mineralvattenfabriken’s industrial history and Hagastaden’s vibrant innovation power. We believe that our new office hub will be a source of good collaboration and experiences for both customers and employees for a long time to come,” says Leigh Dagberg, Executive Vice President People & Organization, Husqvarna Group.
Atrium Ljungberg is one of the largest property developers in Hagastaden, and its portfolio boasts both converted industrial buildings and modern office blocks. This includes not only Mineralvattenfabriken but also new Life City, Industricentralen and so-called PV Palatset. The plan is for Hagastaden to grow by 50,000 jobs and 6,000 new residences by 2030. One of the largest park projects in the city is also expected to pass through the heart of this district, linking Hagastaden with Haga Park.
“We are pleased to welcome Husqvarna Group to Mineralvattenfabriken. This property has an industrial feel and history. As Hagastaden grows and develops, it is becoming increasingly clear that interest in the district is increasing. It is truly a place for forward-leaning and innovative companies,” says Catarina Lennartsson, leasing manager at Atrium Ljungberg. “It has a unique international atmosphere that is difficult to find anywhere else in Stockholm, with everything from art galleries and restaurants to outdoor gyms and rooftop bars,” Catarina concludes.
The lease contract with Husqvarna Group is a so-called green lease contract. This is when the landlord and the tenant agree on joint measures to retain or improve the environmental performance of the premises.
