- We have wanted to the establish a Byggmax store in Nacka for a long time.
Nacka is one of the most attractive areas in Sweden, and we have now found a
good location for Byggmax.We hope to be able to open as soon as possible, most
likely during 2014, says Magnus Agervald, CEO Byggmax.

Prästkragens väg 1 is a good location, with a large space and the opportunity to
establish Byggmax’s concept. Overall, a retail space of approximately 8,000 sqm
is necessary, where the retail store and the drive-in occupy the most space.
Byggmax’s concept is based on offering customers quality products at a low
prices, where customers can do a part of the job themselves to keep the costs
down.

The purchase is made as an acquisition of a company, where the real estate has
been assigned a value of SEK 25 million. The purchase price will be paid as a
combination of buying shares in the acquired company, and settle its debt. It
will be paid at once.

We are pleased to have reached an agreement with Byggmax giving us the
possibility to improve our service to vehicle owners in Nacka and Värmdö. The
station in Orminge, Nacka, where both light and heavy vehicles are inspected,
will now be modernised and we will be able to introduce the new and effective
concept that has been a successful model at previousestablishments in recent
years. At the same time the real estate premises will be used in a much more
efficient way, which is good from a sustainability perspective, says Benny
Örnerfors, CEO in Bilprovningen.
