Green Landscaping Group

Green Landscaping Group

Green Landscaping Group is a Nordic company that has established itself, primarily through M&A, as a leading player (~5% market share) in the fragmented and steadily growing market for the landscaping and maintenance of outdoor environments. Most of the customers are city councils and local municipalities (i.e. government-backed). The contracts are often small (SEK 0.5m-5m), but generally last for 3-5 years. The business is divided into three segments: Sweden (56% of sales in '22), Norway (38%) and Finland and Baltic (5%).

M&A execution, performance of acquired units post-acquisition, working capital discipline, contract/price calculations on undertaken projects, cost inflation, heightened competition on price in tender processes
