Telko launches new strategy, Telko Beyond, to accelerate growth
Telko has launched its new strategy, Telko Beyond, focusing on accelerating growth, improving profitability and strengthening Telko's market position.
"We want Telko to be the leading distributor for essential solutions and advanced materials in Northern Europe. With our new strategy and 350 experts in 18 countries, we are strengthening our role as a chemical solutions partner with strong customer and supplier relationships based on nearly 120 years in business. We will continue to serve our customers with an entrepreneurial mindset and focus on building tailored customer experience," says Rolf Jansson, CEO of Telko.
Telko's growth will be driven through targeted organic investments in specialty chemicals and value-added services, in prioritized market segments. Telko's two new business units, Essential Solutions and Advanced Materials, play a key role in building scalable operations and synergies across businesses. Sustainability is an integral part of Telko's growth agenda, driven by for example product mix development and supply chain improvement.
Telko plans to pursue focused mergers and acquisitions to complement its portfolio and create synergies. As part of the new strategy, Telko has also launched a performance improvement program focusing on growth, commercial excellence and operational leverage.
"We systematically analyze our businesses and follow up on action plans to strive for continuous performance improvement. At the same time, we will replicate Telko's strengths across our markets and execute synergies between the businesses. Also the fragmented market offers M&A opportunities," Rolf Jansson continues.
Towards two standalone companies
In line with Aspo's strategic vision, Aspo is in the process of developing Telko and ESL Shipping into stand-alone companies. The target is to execute either the divestment of ESL Shipping or a partial demerger of Aspo by the end of 2026.
