Granngården offers a wide range of products and services for pets, gardens and agriculture – "everything for outdoor living!" It has 109 stores throughout Sweden.
The company was founded in 1880 and was part of Lantmännen until 2006, but is now owned by Felleskjøpet, a Nordic group. Granngården has over 500 employees and an annual turnover of just over two billion.
Granngården had a contract with a good supplier but wanted help negotiating a new contract with more sustainable and environmentally friendly waste management at all of its 109 stores.
"Our collaboration with ERA has worked extremely well right from the first contact. We really appreciated their honesty and clarity, for example when they pointed out early on that we already had a good contract for our waste management. But we still got an even better one. We had a good dialogue throughout the process and received a lot of help, not only in saving money but, just as importantly, in saving time. Above all, we now have better management of our different types of waste. Unsorted waste has decreased and we now have a larger proportion of valuable materials that we can get paid for, which is both an economic and environmental gain." [Johanna Ohrling, Operations and Establishment Manager, Granngården AB]
