Agreement between Axfood and Arla

Agreement between Axfood and Arla

Axfood and Arla are to sign an agreement under which Arla will deliver a larger
part of its product range to more Axfood stores compared with today.
Axfood will also continue to cooperate closely with other regional and local
dairies. In the next few weeks, Axfood will meet representatives of these
dairies in order to renew the agreements with them. The appearance of the
product range at the store level has yet to be decided.
