SSG continues to grow – takes on 10 new employees
SSG’s unique cooperation across borders, businesses and companies to achieve efficiency and security in the industry continues to create good results. For the last six years, SSG has had an annual growth of 16% and during 2010 revenue was 48.2 million SEK. Even more growth is planned for 2011. By the end of last year, eight people had been added to the workforce and two more are to be recruited. During the last three years, the workforce at our Sundsvall office has grown by about 20 people from 30 to almost 50 employees.
In recent years, SSG has experienced success with the enormous expansion of the SSG Entre safety training course with about 70,000 trained contractors. Now the expansion of the SSG Product Database is the engine of growth for the company. During 2010, cooperation with Scania maintenance company Dynamate was initiated and by the end of the year SCA Tissue and SCA Packaging will be connected to the SSG Product Database. As a result of international expansion, eight more people had been employed by the start of 2011. A project manager for the purchasing & logistics business area and a salesman for the health, safety & environment business area are to be recruited during the spring.
