This morning, Clas Ohlson opened its new store in Boglundsängen in Örebro. With this new store, Clas Ohlson now has 100 stores in the Swedish market.
“It feels absolutely fantastic to reach the milestone of 100 stores in Sweden! We have a very strong position in Sweden and are highly anticipated when we open new stores. We are now planning to open even more stores in Sweden,” says Andreas Helgesson, Country Operations Manager.
The new store in Örebro is located in Boglundsängen retail park northwest of central Örebro. The store has a sales area of 1,240 square meters and will be Clas Ohlson's third store in Örebro.
“Together with our other stores in this area, we will be very accessible in Örebro. It will be convenient to find what is needed for your home improvements,” says Andreas Helgesson.
Clas Ohlson's store expansion will continue throughout the autumn. Already next week, the 101st store in Sweden will open as Clas Ohlson makes a comeback in Burlöv Center north of Malmö. After that, three store openings are planned in Norway, where Clas Ohlson will also reach a hundred stores starting this autumn.
Clas Ohlson now has a total of 235 stores, with 100 in Sweden, 97 in Norway, and 38 in Finland.
