Löfbergs is in the running for an international advertising award
Cresta Awards is an international advertising competition based in New York. For the first time, the Swedish coffee roaster Löfbergs is one of the finalists. The company has been nominated for its campaign "En god anledning att ses" (A good reason to get together).
Löfbergs praised for sustainability work
Löfbergs is one of Sweden's 10 best role models in the sustainability field - this according to a survey that was presented during the Almedalen Week in Sweden. 200 sustainability experts were given the opportunity to give their opinion on companies that are in the forefront, and Löfbergs is one of them.
Big business in Britain for Löfbergs
The Swedish company Löfbergs continues its expansion in Europe. The family-owned coffee roaster is buying the British company Food Brands Group. Through this acquisition, Löfbergs will establish in British retail market. The acquisition is the largest one in Löfbergs's more than hundred-year history.
"A dark coffee cloud is sweeping over Finland"
They drink more coffee than anyone else in the world, and they are traditionally a bit fairer than other Europeans. But now the dark roast coffee gains ground in Finland. In a recent study, Kharisma and Crescendo from Löfbergs get high marks from Finnish consumers.
Löfbergs's Kharisma keeps on increasing
Increasing sales. Month after month. For almost two years. Löfberg's introduction of Kharisma in Sweden has far exceeded all expectations. For the latest twelve-month period (March 2012-February 2013), the growth was a stunning 96 percent, which is more than twice as much as for other established products within the dark-roast segment.
Löfbergs wants to build new storage rooms in Karlstad
The number of products is increasing, and so are the volumes. With that, Löfbergs's storage rooms in central Karlstad, Sweden, have become too small. Now, the family-owned coffee roaster is turning to the municipality of Karlstad to be permitted to build new storage rooms outside the town centre.
Swedish coffee at Finland's national arena
The agreement has been signed. Shortly, the audience at Finland's national arena, Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, will be drinking Swedish coffee from Löfbergs. For Löfbergs, this settlement is an important step in the progress of taking market shares outside of Sweden.
