STARK Group expands its branch network in Norway with third opening in three months
STARK Group’s Norwegian business, Neumann Bygg, strengthens its position and presence around the capital, Oslo. With the branch opening in Slemmestad, Neumann Bygg marks its third branch opening in just three months.
The new branch in Slemmestad cements the company’s continued investment in strengthening its presence in the growth areas around the larger cities. The branch is Neumann’s second location in Eastern Norway and is an important step in the company’s strategy to expand its foothold in and around the Norwegian capital.
CEO of STARK Group, Søren P. Olesen says:
“We have invested in our branch network over the past few years. With our new branch in Slemmestad, we not only strengthen our position in and around Oslo, but we also ensure a strategic location that guarantees efficient service to our customers.”
The opening in Slemmestad follows in the wake of the previous establishment in Askim in 2020 and the plan for a new branch opening in Sarpsborg in early 2025.
