Tempcon’s subsidiary, Erling Andersson Åkeri (EA Åkeri), announces that Peter Friberg will assume the role of CEO on 1st October 2024. Friberg, who already has a close association with EA Åkeri through his concurrent role as CEO of the sister company PL Frakt, will now take the helm at EA Åkeri with the goal of strengthening the company’s position as a leading player in temperature-controlled transport in Sweden.
Peter Friberg has worked closely with EA Åkeri over the past year, which has provided him with deep insights into the operations and a good understanding of the company’s strategy and future plans. His dual role as CEO of both EA Åkeri and PL Frakt opens up opportunities for deeper collaboration between the two companies, which is expected to create synergies and drive business development forward.
– It is with great humility that I step into the role of CEO in a third-generation family business. Leading a company with such a long and proud history is an honour, and it was an easy decision to accept, given the loyalty and commitment that pervades the entire company. I look forward to continuing to develop EA Åkeri together with our fantastic employees. Our focus will be on quality, sustainability, and maintaining the strong customer relationships we are known for,” says Peter Friberg, new CEO of EA Åkeri.
EA Åkeri is part of Tempcon Group, the leading partner for temperature-controlled logistics in the Nordics. This change continues Tempcon’s strategy to strengthen growth and collaboration within the group.
– We are very pleased that Peter Friberg is taking on the role of CEO at EA Åkeri. His strong leadership, combined with his deep understanding of the industry and the company, will be crucial as we take the next step in our development and continue to deliver market-leading solutions for our customers,” says Christian Hallberg, CEO of Tempcon Group.
Outgoing CEO, Stefan Ohlmander, will transition to a role as Business Developer from 1st October. Stefan will have a particular focus on business development across the entire Tempcon Group, with an emphasis on EA Åkeri. His mission will be to increase sales by developing relationships with both existing and potential customers. Stefan will also act as a cohesive link for joint customer contacts within the group.
– I feel great confidence and assurance in passing the role on to Peter Friberg. His dedication and expertise, along with the close collaboration between EA Åkeri and PL Frakt, are the right way forward to strengthen the company’s market position. I look forward to contributing to further developing our business and deepening our customer relationships in my new role as Business Developer, says Stefan Ohlmander, outgoing CEO and incoming Business Developer at Tempcon Group.
