“Demand continues to be good but conditions vary depending on location and product. Peab´s net sales have grown and operating profit has improved during the first half-year of 2019. We continue to invest in our project development business and we are also expanding our industrial operations through the acquisition of YIT’s Nordic paving and mineral aggregates business. The agreement was signed in the beginning of July and the takeover is expected to occur on January 1, 2020,” says Jesper Göransson, CEO and President of Peab.
