Peab builds the Emil i Lönneberga-area in Vimmerby

Peab has been contracted to build the new Emil i Lönneberga area in Vimmerby. The client is Astrid Lindgren's World and the contract amounts to SEK 86.5 million.

In this area, a Småland region from beginning of the 19th century will be built with the farm Katthult in the center and an adjacent old town center.

- We built Mattisborgen in 2011 which was a very special project. We are proud that we have renewed confidence from Astrid Lindgren's World to construct this fabled environment, says Peab Regional Manager Fredrick Ilestedt.
