EA Akeri

What EA Akeri does

EA Akeri (legal name: Erling Andersson Åkeri AB) is a Swedish private limited company providing temperature-controlled transport and logistics services to the food industry. Founded in 1951 and focused exclusively on food transport since 1963, the company operates refrigerated and frozen freight services across Sweden from five locations — Skara (headquarters, workshop, and refrigerated/frozen terminal), Örebro, Jönköping, Linköping, and Gävle. Its customer base consists of B2B food-industry clients requiring unbroken cold chain integrity, on-time delivery, and damage-free handling for perishable goods.

The company's operational backbone combines a modern vehicle fleet with onboard computers (GPS positioning, fuel consumption monitoring, driver communication), a real-time temperature log system enabling customer-facing cold-chain monitoring and delivery notifications, and an in-house certified workshop with refrigeration technicians for preventive maintenance of cooling and freezing units. It holds ISO 14001 environmental and ISO 9001 quality certifications and runs a significant share of its fleet on HVO renewable fuel, claiming up to 90% CO2 savings. Supporting offerings include warehouse and terminal handling at the Skara facility, complying with current food-safety legislation and hygiene requirements.

EA Akeri has been a subsidiary of Tempcon Group — a Swedish conglomerate of entrepreneurially-driven temperature-controlled logistics companies — since autumn 2021. The group relationship expands EA's effective transport network across Sweden and into international lanes via sister companies. Revenue is generated through quote-based, custom-priced B2B transport contracts; no public pricing, customer logos, or revenue figures are disclosed. The company is led by CEO Peter Friberg, with a management structure spanning finance, invoicing, traffic/transport management, production, haulage/forwarding, and workshop operations.

Broad incumbents

• DB Schenker: European land transport and contract logistics incumbent with refrigerated freight capabilities in Sweden; overlaps with EA on B2B food transport customers via broader group contracts.
• Bring: Norwegian-headquartered Nordic parcel and freight network (Posten Norge/PostNord-related) with temperature-controlled capacity in Sweden; broader portfolio but directly competes for chilled/frozen food shipments across Scandinavia.
• DSV: Global freight forwarder and road transport operator with a large Swedish footprint offering refrigerated road services; competes for the same food-industry contract logistics spend but as part of a much wider portfolio.
• PostNord TPL: Swedish postal/logistics group's transport and logistics division with domestic distribution capabilities that overlaps with EA's Swedish B2B transport market.
• Kuehne+Nagel: Global logistics integrator with dedicated cold-chain solutions and significant Swedish road/air freight operations; competes for large food-industry accounts and offers digitally enabled cold-chain visibility.
• Dachser: German-headquartered European road freight and contract logistics provider with food-logistics and cold-chain expertise; competing for cross-border and Nordic chilled freight contracts.

Regional players

• Girteka Logistics: Large European road transport group with growing Scandinavian activity; competes for refrigerated loads passing through the Nordics and represents a larger-fleet, lower-cost competitive threat.

Direct peers

• Coldstar Logistics: Swedish specialist in temperature-controlled transport and warehousing for the food industry — same customer vertical, same refrigerated/frozen service mix, and overlapping Swedish geography.
• PL Frakt: Sister company within Tempcon Group providing general and temperature-controlled freight in Sweden; same ownership group, similar Swedish B2B food-industry customer base, and shared leadership contact (Peter Friberg).
• Frigoscandia: Nordic specialist in temperature-controlled food logistics combining transport and cold storage; highly comparable offering to EA's chilled/frozen transport plus Skara terminal.
