Ola is 55 years old and holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in business administration from the Gothenburg School of Business, Economics and Law. He most recently served as CEO and joint owner of Kemetyl. Prior to that, he worked at industrial companies such as Univar, BASF and SKF, and held various senior positions over a period of 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lesj\u00f6fors, subsidiary to Beijer Alma, has revenues of MSEK 2,625 and operating profit of MSEK 531 for 2018.

It has been a privilege to work with such a successful industry leader during my time at Beijer Alma. On behalf of the Board of Directors and all of our employees, I would like to thank Kjell-Arne for his outstanding contribution over the years,\u201d<\/em> <br>says Beijer Alma\u2019s President and CEO, <strong>Henrik Perbeck<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cAt the same time, we are proud to welcome Ola Tengroth to Lesj\u00f6fors. The company will continue its journey of international growth, through both acquisitions and organic development. Ola is the right person to lead this work.
