Scan Sveriges completes the acquisition of Delsbo Slakteri and Jämtlandsgården
Scan Sverige’s acquisition of Delsbo Slakteri AB and Jämtlandsgården Livsmedel AB has been approved by the relevant authorities. The transaction has now been completed, and ownership has been transferred to Scan Sverige. The acquisition strengthens Scan Sverige’s slaughter capacity in northern Sweden and supports the company’s ambition to increase and further develop the production of beef and lamb.
“I am pleased that the transaction has been completed and delighted to welcome the employees of Delsbo and Jämtlandsgården to Scan Sverige. These acquisitions increase our capacity and strengthen our ability to expand production in northern Sweden, an effort I look forward to driving forward together with both new colleagues and suppliers,” says Lars Appelqvist, CEO of Scan Sverige.
The acquisitions include the entire operations of Delsbo Slakteri AB and Jämtlandsgården Livsmedel AB. Scan Sverige will manage the businesses as separate business units.
“When Lantmännen acquired Scan Sverige, it was with a clear focus on growth – both to develop the business and to strengthen Swedish food production and Swedish agriculture. The completion of the acquisitions of Delsbo Slakteri and Jämtlandsgården is another step along that path,” says Magnus Kagevik, President and CEO of Lantmännen.
In addition to the acquisitions, Scan Sverige and Lantmännen are continuing their feasibility study to assess the potential for establishing a new slaughterhouse in northern Sweden. The study is progressing according to plan, and a decision is expected to be made in the autumn of 2026. Both the feasibility study and the acquisitions are in line with Sweden’s national food strategy and aim to strengthen food production in northern Sweden.
