Bergfalk was founded in Stockholm in 1840 and has since grown its turnover to about SEK 550 million. Sweden is the dominant market for the company and in 2016, operations were also established in Finland. Bergfalk offers high quality fresh food to restaurants and grocery retailers, where the restaurant segment accounts for a clear majority of sales. The company has built a strong market position and a respected brand by offering expertise, product quality and refinement combined with local presence, speed, flexibility and good service levels.
“We are very proud of the fantastic growth Bergfalk has achieved in recent years. We have built a strong organisation with talented employees and a well-regarded brand and are looking forward to take the next step in the development by further strengthening our market position, both organically and through more acquisitions” says Lars Bengtsson, CEO and co-owner in Bergfalk. “It feels exciting to continue the journey in close partnership with Litorina and take advantage of their solid experience of building companies and their wide network of industrial advisors who can help us continue our rapid growth and take Bergfalk to the next level.”
