Scana Steel AB is a small, prospering and cost efficient real estate firm that manages Scana’s real estate in Karlskoga, north-east of Väneren in Sweden.
The company owns 35,000 m2 of real estate in total. This mainly consists of industrial premises, with additional office and service areas. The business is located on the old industrial site of Bofors, and the properties were acquired in 1997, when Scana bought a part of Bofors AB.
After structural changes in the defence industry, a need has arisen to see new activity in the halls; to replace the existing tenants’ lessened need for rented area.
Services
Today, six external companies rent areas for a total of 23,000 m2. The remaining areas are rented and utilised by Scana Steel Booforge AB.
Today, two companies are operating on the premises, on a surface area covering just over 15,000 m2.
One of these companies are KGA Logistik AB, owned by Galatea Spirits AB. KGA Logistik AB is one of the five largest distributors of beer, wine and spirits in Sweden.
Logistics and geography
From a Swedish perspective, Karlskoga is located almost in the middle of a centre for logistics. And with the improved road E18 towards Örebro and Karlskoga, Karlskoga today represents a strong, competitive alternative to other closely situated places.
Business has been positive in 2010 for Scana Steel AB and its tenants. Especially the logistics companies have seen a positive development and are asking for larger areas.
