Wibax Reaches Billion Goal

The target was set almost ten years ago. In 2018, it was reached and exceeded. Piteå company Wibax is now part of a select band of companies in Sweden’s Norrbotten region with a turnover exceeding 1 billion SEK. “We aimed to reach the goal by 2020, but last year, we already had a turnover of almost 1.2 billion SEK”, explains CEO Jonas Wiklund. “Additionally, we have managed to increase our turnover year by year whilst remaining profitable and we have also exceeded our profit target for 2018. This feels great and it was of course made possible by the incredible efforts and engagement of our staff.”

Wibax took to the use of an external board at an early stage; this year, it is 25 years since the first board was appointed. An important prerequisite of a company’s success is a competent, experienced board which understands the company’s strengths and which has the knowledge and experience to develop it in the right direction. The members of the Wibax Board have long been successful in this respect and the time has now come to give a warm welcome to two new members. Their accumulated experience means the company will retain excellent prospects of continued success.
