HSP Gripen can sum up a record year for 2022

HSP Gripen is looking towards yet another record year, whilst high-volume manufacturing continues and the factory has been reorganised to better cope with the increased demand. As we summarise this year, we can confirm that we have passed MSEK 90 in turnover, a 10% increase over the previous year. We want to extend a big Thank You to all our employees, customers, dealers & partners who have made this possible. We will now continue on the path paved and produce even more of the world’s best grapple “Gripen” that is now getting even better.  

With an ongoing investment of MSEK 20 for 2022-2023, our manufacturing site will undergo a complete layout change. New production units will be introduced and together with automation & robotisation solutions, our production will become more efficient whilst the work environment improves even further.  

• Passed the 50-employee line with the addition of e.g., Stina Ohlsson in Technical Design and Emil Asplund as Export Salesperson. 

• Introduced a comprehensive conversion of our production flow, which in addition to a new layout included the installation of a new machining centre and a laser cuttingmachine are ordered. Investments that together go beyond MSEK 10 and will continue into 2023.

• Started the internal on-the-job training “Gripenschool” 2.0 where ten of our employees will get their exams right before the summer in 2023.

• Delivered Gripen no. 2,500 to our Norwegian Distributor NASTA AS.

• Upgraded our Big Grapple series with successful deliveries to among others Södra Värö (9000B) and Engbergs Transportsystem (12000B).

• Started up a number of new OEM/OED* collaborations that will strongly contribute to the next step in the Gripen development.
