What Servanet does
Servanet AB is a privately held Swedish local fiber network operator headquartered in Sundsvall, serving approximately 38,000 customers across six municipalities in Västernorrland County (Härnösand, Ragunda, Strömsund, Sundsvall, Timrå, and Ånge). Founded in 2008 and employing 51–100 people, the company owns and operates the underlying passive and active fiber infrastructure on which an open-access model is layered: 20+ competing internet service providers, including Telia, Bahnhof, Bredband2, Tele2, Telenor, Allente, Boxer, and regional ISPs, sell internet, TV, telephony, and bundled packages to end customers over Servanet's network.
The core product portfolio spans fiber internet at speeds from 10/10 Mbit/s to 1000/1000 Mbit/s, TV services, WiFi as a service, sensor/IoT networks (including the "Säker Stad" smart-city initiative), safety services for elderly and vulnerable users, and an AI-powered customer service assistant called Sigge. Revenue is generated primarily through a mandatory monthly Nätavtal (network agreement) of 219 SEK covering infrastructure access and a basic 2 Mbit/s service, plus service-provider access fees and value-added services such as WiFi range extenders and service-level agreements. Distribution is product-led via a self-serve online portal (tjanster.servanet.se) complemented by physical customer offices in Sundsvall, Härnösand, and Ånge, with a marketing presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and IoT-sector podcast media.
Operationally, Servanet reports 99.9% network uptime for business services and 99.95% for residential, is GDPR-compliant, and is partly owned by municipal stakeholders following Kramfors Mediateknik's June 2026 entry as a new co-owner. The company's strategic posture combines regional infrastructure dominance with a deliberate expansion into higher-margin IoT, sensor, and smart-city services for municipalities and businesses.
