Indutrade has a long record of experience in company acquisitions. Since 1978 more than 80 acquisitions have been carried out, of which more than 60 were during the last decade. These acquisitions have accounted for a large share of Indutrade's sales growth. Future growth is also expected to be achieved in part through company acquisitions.

Indutrade is a long-term owner, and the companies it acquires are not subject to further sale.
The acquisition strategy is based on a two-pronged approach:

1. acquiring niche technology companies in countries with a strong trading tradition. Examples of such countries are the Benelux countries, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, the UK and Austria;
2. acquiring international niche companies with proprietary products.

The goal is to acquire a number of companies each year with net sales exceeding SEK 30 million each. Through a network of customers, suppliers and other market actors, Indutrade has a good picture of potential acquisition candidates in the market. Due to the fragmented market structure, access to acquisition candidates is good. By virtue of its strong acquisition history, its size and its good reputation, Indutrade has the experience and conditions needed to carry out value-creating acquisitions.
