Sajas in Lagercrantz Group

When Sajas Group became part of Lagercrantz in 2020, it had been a family business since 1945 and was managed by the third generation. Lagercrantz's long-term ownership perspective and respectful approach to Saja's corporate culture, combined with Lagercrantz's experience in developing companies, has made it possible for Sajas Group to expand operations in a short time and significantly improve profitability. In the past year alone, profitability has doubled.

Sajas Group's management has always been passionate about product development and customers but had limited resources to take bigger steps in its expansion. With Lagercrantz as owner, the company has become more business-like and focused, while new approaches have led to improved profitability, as well as more efficient production and inventory management.

In addition to knowledge and financial strength, Lagercrantz also brings a valuable network. Sajas Group is now part of a cluster of companies with similar activities within Lagercrantz, and along the way collaborations are developed in various areas. For example, sustainability has always been important to the Sajas Group, and within Lagercrantz the company has taken further steps towards environmentally friendly materials and clearer targets for reduced carbon dioxide emissions.

"Being part of Lagercrantz means having the best of both worlds. We can maintain our corporate culture that builds long-term relationships with customers and staff, while benefiting from being in this strong group that offers networking, knowledge sharing, structure and financial strength."
Anna Sajakorpi, board member and former owner.
