Ab A. Häggblom Oy's operative management to become the largest owner of the Häggblom Group
22 June 2016
With a sale and purchase of shares dated 21 June 2016, the ownership of the Häggblom Group was transferred to the operative management and two Ostrobothnia-based investment companies, Oy Wedeco Ab and Myro Equity Ab, which is a family company based in Pedersöre. Profita Fund III Ky, which is managed by Profita Management and the largest shareholder in the company, sold their shares in the Häggblom Group, as did all the other old shareholders.
The operative management, the largest single shareholder of Häggblom now, are very satisfied that the ownership arrangements are beneficial to the company. "We are especially pleased to have managed to find new owners here in Ostrobothnia region," says Häggblom's CEO Jukka Karhula. "Häggblom is a great company and we trust the company will have a bright future. We have highly-skilled staff, great clients, partners and an interesting operational environment. Both our clients and partners are the leaders in their industries."
The new ownership arrangement will have no impact on the company's daily operations. Häggblom will continue to develop the company according to its strategy in order to become an even stronger player and specialist in its industry.
