Swedish coffee roaster Löfbergs has appointed transport group SAMS Norway CEO Eja Tuominen to its board.
Tuominen brings 30 years of experience in senior management positions with expertise in commercialisation, internationalisation, and other growth issues.
Prior to SAMS Norway, Tuominen held the position of Commercial Director at IKEA as well as sales and marketing roles at Finnish retail chain KESKO.
“With an impressive combination of knowledge and experience, Eja will be an important resource in our effort to create sustainable growth in an international arena,” says Kathrine Löfberg, Chair of the Board and fourth generation coffee roaster.
Tuominen adds: “Löfbergs is a fruitful family business that successfully combines good business with a genuine responsibility in the entire value chain, which I admire. I look forward to working with Kathrine and the rest of the board to realise the growth plans of the company.”
Founded in 1906 in Karlstad, Sweden, Löfbergs is now one of the largest family-owned coffee roasteries in the Nordic region. The company’s production equates to 12 million cups of coffee per day, with every second cup sold outside Sweden.
