Growth strategy

Our goal will be achieved partly by acquiring companies, and partly through organic growth.

Growth strategy

One of our financial targets is to grow more than 5 per cent over a business cycle. We are doing this through organic growth and acquisitions. Between 2012 and 2024, turnover more than doubled from SEK 17.7 Bn to SEK 39.2 Bn and the number of employees increased by almost 50 per cent.

Strategy for the future

Growth through acquisitions

Bilia has a broad and well-established base as regards car brands, service centres and geographical presence. Over the past decade we have made about 45 acquisitions, which have entailed expansion into new countries, new car brands and new service areas. In light of the ongoing consolidation in the industry, we see good opportunities to create continued growth through future acquisitions in areas of strategic importance to us. We want to grow in Sweden, Norway, Luxembourg and Belgium, but other European countries may also be of interest should the right kind of opportunity arise. Our aim is also to grow the Service Business by making acquisitions in new areas of operation. 

Well-planned, strategically suitable acquisitions contribute to organic growth through our focus on efficiency and improvement, especially within the Service Business.

Organic growth

Our ongoing efforts to improve and develop the existing business ensure that we can grow organically in the best way possible, while maintaining profitability and meeting the latest sustainability requirements. We are continuing to work on our MobiliaCare operational area, which focuses on products and services that are common to all car brands. MobiliaCare currently covers car glass, spare parts recycling, car dismantling, used cars, bodywork and paintwork, wheels and tyres, wheel storage and rim repair.

One of our sustainability target is for the use of used spare parts linked to repair jobs to reach 12 per cent in Sweden by 2028. We want to increase the percentage of used spare parts from car dismantling at our repair workshops, thus contributing to more sustainable utilisation of the vehicle throughout its life cycle. As society’s focus on circularity increases, there is expected to be greater demand for used spare parts.
