Kristofer Tonström, CEO and President: We managed to exceed 1 billion SEK in sales for the first time ever in a January month, following organic sales growth of 13 per cent. This growth comes from positive development in all prioritised product niches, with an extra boost from weather-related products as the cold weather swept across our sales markets. The home markets developed very well, with double digit growth in all countries, but as before, the weaker NOK has a significant negative impact when sales in Norway are converted into SEK.
