Our Business
Arlandastad Group owns and operates two of Sweden's largest development projects or destinations as we also call them. We see the whole of a place and realize the potential by acquiring raw land for long-term property management.
With our large project portfolio, the common thread is long-term value creation. The portfolio is continuously expanded with new land, which we believe has great potential. The latest addition is Explore Skavsta. Explore is our location brand, which is combined with the geographical name. It holds together but also apart our big projects. Just like Explore Arlandastad, it will be developed and marketed according to its own conditions. Our first two location brands and land projects are adjacent to airports. There is no requirement for our future land projects, however, they have given Explore Arlandastad and Explore Skavsta a strong value for development potential. New Explore projects can be created in all areas where we see potential, areas where our expertise comes in handy.
Explore Arlandastad
In 2022, Arlandastad Group acquired a 484 hectare area in Nyköping that includes Stockholm Skavsta Airport.
There are great opportunities for companies that want to establish themselves in a communication hub with major ongoing investments. In 2031, a station for the new double-track railroad Ostlänken is planned to be completed. Together with Nyköping Municipality, we are developing the Explore Skavsta area to create better infrastructure and more business opportunities even before the East Link is in place.
Explore Skavsta
In 2022, Arlandastad Group acquired Explore Skavsta. A 484-hectare land area in Nyköping with a strategic location close to Stockholm, the E4 motorway, Oxelösund's deep-water port and Stockholm Skavsta Airport. Arlandastad Group co-owns the land and Stockholm Skavsta Airport with Nyköping Municipality. The company owns 90.1 percent and Nyköping Municipality 9.9 percent.
There are great opportunities here for companies that want to establish themselves in a communications hub with major ongoing investments. A station for the new double-track railway, the East Link, is planned to be completed in 2035.
Together with Nyköping Municipality, we are developing Explore Skavsta to create better infrastructure and more business opportunities even before the East Link is in place. Many strong businesses are already established and more are on the way.
Cooperation with municipalities
We work in close cooperation with society, the state and municipalities to ensure infrastructure solutions, social investments and efficient decision-making paths. Within Explore Arlandastad we do this through the Arlandastad Group's co-ownership of Airport City Stockholm - a collaboration with Swedavia and Sigtuna Municipality. Our common goal is to work for a city whose exceptional location provides opportunities for people and businesses to grow.
In Explore Skavsta, we co-own the developable land and airport in the area together with Nyköping Municipality. Close cooperation ensures a strong and sustainable future for Skavsta. Nyköping Municipality has worked for five years on a planning program for the area, which is part of the municipality's designated development area, which shows that the municipality and we have a strong belief in the future of the area as a whole.
Place Branding
Explore is our place brand, combined with the geographical name of the place. It keeps our major development projects together, but also apart.
Both our place brands and development projects are located next to airports. This is not a requirement for our future land projects, but it gives Explore Arlandastad and Explore Skavsta a strong value for development potential. New projects can be created in all areas where we see potential and where our expertise is useful.
