The national award ceremony took place at Stockholm City Hall, where Stringo was represented by CEO Nina Thelin and brother Johan Fahlén who works in production, planning and procurement within Stringo. The jury singled out Stringo for its ability to take a highly specialized idea and build it into a thriving business with global reach — all while maintaining strong roots in its home region of Västernorrland.
“We dared to focus on a very niche product and bring it all the way,” said Nina Thelin during the awards presentation. Today, Stringo’s battery-powered vehicle movers are relied upon by leading automotive manufacturers, test facilities, workshops and museums — and even used by police for secure, efficient handling of impounded vehicles.
The jury’s official motivation highlighted Stringo’s focus, long-term commitment and ability to grow internationally without losing its local identity — demonstrating that sustainable growth and global relevance can go hand-in-hand.
Since its founding, Stringo has evolved from a local family-owned enterprise into a respected global innovator, continuously strengthening its presence in key markets and advancing product development. This national recognition underscores the company’s ongoing mission to deliver reliable, efficient and forward-thinking solutions to customers around the world.
