STARK Group opens second 24/7 branch in Sweden
STARK Group is strengthening its Swedish network with the opening of a new 24/7 branch in Hisings Backa, Gothenburg. Operated by the Group’s Swedish brand Beijer Byggmaterial, the branch marks a strategic move to strengthen STARK Group’s position in the Gothenburg region while offering maximum flexibility to contractors and tradespeople.
Covering 22,000 square meters, the branch provides access to building materials at all hours. With extended opening hours from 05:00 to 23:00 and the option to collect pre-ordered materials with just 15 minutes’ notice, customers benefit from maximum flexibility, whether their needs arise early in the morning, late at night, or over the weekend. Combined with Beijer’s central warehouse capabilities, the Group now offers a complete solution that makes everyday work easier for its customers.
Søren P. Olesen, CEO of STARK Group, says:
“The opening of our 24/7 branch in Gothenburg is an important step in our ambition to stay close to our customers. It provides tradespeople and contractors with immediate access to building materials and enhances both flexibility and service across the region”
The branch in Gothenburg is STARK Group’s second 24/7 location in Sweden, following the successful launch in Stockholm. The Group was the first in the Nordics to introduce round-the-clock branches, starting in 2014 with a 24/7 branch in Copenhagen. Since then, the concept has been rolled out in Finland, where five branches now offer 24/7 service, and in Sweden, with branches in both Stockholm and Gothenburg.
