What Parkman does

Parkman i Sverige AB is a privately held Swedish parking operator founded in 2010, headquartered in Täby. The company runs 50+ parking facilities across major Swedish cities including Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, Norrköping, Jönköping, Uppsala, Västerås, Karlstad, Solna, and Helsingborg, anchored by high-traffic sites at Westfield Mall of Scandinavia (3,900 spaces), Westfield Täby Centrum, Nordstan, Mobilia Köpcentrum, Sheraton Stockholm, Technopolis Kista, Strawberry Arena, and the Globen Arena Complex (Avicii Arena, Hovet, Annexet, 3Arena). Parkman also operates taxi remote services at Arlanda and Bromma airports.

The company's core technology is Autopay, a camera-based automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) system that reads vehicle registration plates at entry and exit points, eliminating physical barriers or paper tickets. Multiple payment methods are supported including automatic debit, 48-hour pay-later, app payment via EasyPark/Parkster/Parkamo, and invoicing, with a service fee of 4.95 SEK per Autopay transaction. Contract parking is managed through the Park46 platform (which replaced PhonePark in April 2023), using BankID identity verification and Scrive-based digital contract signing. The product line also includes Event Parking pre-booking for arena venues and Autopay Park & Charge, combining parking payment with EV charging station access.

Parkman operates a hybrid B2B/B2C business model. Revenue derives from five streams: visitor parking transaction fees, monthly contract parking subscriptions (760–3,316 SEK depending on space type), event parking pre-bookings at premium fixed prices (200–300 SEK per session), Autopay service fees, and invoice fees (49–59 SEK). On the B2B side, Parkman sells parking management solutions to property owners and managers via direct outreach through its website. On the consumer side, end drivers access facilities directly with support from third-party parking app integrations. The company employs 11–50 people and received the Branchvinnare 2026 industry award from Svenska ISI in February 2026.

• Aimo Park: Nordic parking facility operator and mobility services provider operating Swedish parking assets, contract parking, and EV charging in competition with Parkman's commercial portfolio.
