Sweco has signed an agreement to acquire Juust B.V., a Dutch consultancy firm specialising in civil engineering, spatial planning, mobility and urban planning. The acquisition adds more than 30 consultants and engineers to Sweco’s team of 2,200 architects, engineers, and consultants in the Netherlands, thereby strengthening its offering and geographical presence in the southwestern part of the country.

Juust provides consultancy services related to the design, planning, and execution of projects within urban planning, roads, water management and other infrastructure solutions. Their work typically encompasses both public and private sector projects and contributes to the development and enhancement of infrastructure that supports urban growth, environmental sustainability and mobility.

“We are delighted to announce yet another acquisition for Sweco in the Netherlands, and I would like to extend a warm welcome to our new colleagues from Juust, who will complement our capabilities in the province of Zeeland in urban development, spatial planning, mobility, process-management and civil engineering. With the team of professionals from Juust we can create even more value for our clients. We also recognise a strong cultural fit that is about people and the motto of Juust (‘because tomorrow can be more beautiful’) fits in seamlessly with the Sweco’s purpose of transforming society together,” says Eugene Grüter, Business Area President, Sweco in the Netherlands.

Juust posted turnover of approximately EUR 4.1 million in 2024, while Sweco Netherlands had a turnover of approximately EUR 283.4 million in the same year. Juust will be consolidated into Sweco immediately.

This acquisition aligns with Sweco’s acquisition strategy to grow the business by adding key skills that complement Sweco’s 22,000 experts, and it will expand the Group’s market position as Europe’s leading architecture and engineering consultancy. 

Recent acquisitions by Sweco in the Netherlands include an engineering company with 60 experts specialising in circularity and technical installations for sustainability, comfort and safety in buildings as well as a leading environmental consultancy with 200 experts in the fields of ecology, biodiversity, archaeology, infrastructure, water and soil.
