“KW Wheels was founded in 2014 as a wholesaler of
tyres and rims, and deals primarily in complete wheels” KW WHEELS CEO: Jörgen Forsberg | www.kwwheels.se KW Wheels was founded in 2014 as a wholesale retailer of tyres and rims. Complete wheels comprise the majority of sales. KW Wheels cooperates with all known tyre producers and holds the Swedish licence for Alutec rims. Following a very positive start to 2014, KW Wheels outgrew its facilities in Grimbodalen in Gothenburg. To increase production capability and improve stock capacity, KW Wheels relocated to new facilities at Hisingen. NEW ACQUISITIONS AND EXPANDED SERVICES During the year, KW Wheels acquired an e-commerce portal as part of its goal to improve and modernise customer services. By September, the portal was fully operational and we expect the portal to contribute to our sales goals for 2016 being achieved through increased accessibility and improved customer friendliness. In 2015, we also began developing the KW Däckdepå workshop concept, which offers tyre services to our customers. Concept roll-out will continue throughout 2016. 60,000 5,000 WHEELS SOLD SQUARE METRES, OF WARE HOUSE SPACE Multi-year comparison 2015 Net turnover (TSEK) Profit after financial items Average number of employees 126,291 15,458 8 2014 54,720 8,455 5 ANDERS HEDIN INVEST AB ANNUAL REPORT / 2015 33
