Svevia AB is a Swedish, state-owned company specializing in the construction, operation, and maintenance of transport and civil infrastructure. Headquartered in Stockholm, Svevia is one of Sweden’s leading road and infrastructure contractors, with operations across more than 100 locations nationwide. The company employs around 2,100 people and reported revenues of approximately SEK 11.6 billion in 2024. Formed in 2010 after being spun off from the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket), Svevia was established to strengthen competition and efficiency in Sweden’s road maintenance sector. Since then, the company has evolved into a full-service infrastructure partner, providing expertise in road construction and maintenance, bridge and port works, rail and ground engineering, and environmental and landscaping services. Svevia’s business model is built on four key principles: customer focus, specialization, operational excellence, and employee engagement. The company’s mission is to ensure safe, sustainable, and efficient transport infrastructure for society—balancing economic performance with social and environmental responsibility. Sustainability is integrated into all operations, with emphasis on reducing carbon emissions, increasing recycling in asphalt production, and using climate-smart materials and machinery. Svevia also invests in digital solutions and data-driven methods to improve efficiency, safety, and environmental outcomes across its projects. Through its long-term commitment to quality, innovation, and responsible business practices, Svevia continues to play a vital role in shaping Sweden’s transport infrastructure and supporting mobility across the country.
