24.11.2025 08:00:00 CET | STARK Group | Pressemeddelelse
STARK Group is strengthening its position in Norway with the opening of a new state-of-the-art branch and accompanying distribution centre in Lønborg, Bergen. The investment is a key part of the Group’s strategy to be close to customers in the largest growth areas – particularly in and around the major cities where construction activity is highest.
The new 12,000 m² facility is BREEAM-NOR certified and built to some of the industry’s highest environmental standards. Customers will benefit from innovative, sustainable solutions, highly optimised logistics, and a significantly improved experience – from faster pick-up to better accessibility and more efficient workflows.
Following more than 70 years at its iconic Sandviken location, Neumann Bygg has now completed a major transformation: constructing a new, purpose-built branch and relocating operations to Lønborg. The move provides a significantly enhanced environment for customers and employees alike, blending modern design with improved efficiency and convenience.
Kjell Paulsrud, CEO of Neumann Bygg, says:
“This is more than just a relocation – it’s an important step into the future. We have created a distribution centre for all of Bergen with modern logistics, a drive-through, and a working environment that offers both customers and employees an efficient and inspiring place to be. Our owners believe in Norway and are investing in the future. That sends a strong signal to the entire industry.”
Neumann Bygg operates four branches in and around Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen.
The official opening was conducted by Bergen’s Mayor, Marit Warncke.
