BERNERS TUNGA FORDON AB

What BERNERS TUNGA FORDON AB does

Berners Tunga Fordon AB is an authorised Scania dealership and service operator headquartered in Östersund, Sweden, with eight physical branches across Jämtland, Västernorrland, and adjacent counties (Östersund, Sundsvall, Sveg, Sollefteå, Örnsköldsvik, Lycksele, Ås, and Busscenter Östersund). The company sells new and used Scania trucks (L, P, G, R, S series, including Super, XT, gas, and electric variants) and Scania Touring buses, performs in-house body-build modifications (HIAB load-shifters, JOAB, Zetterbergs, OP Höglands, NTM, VAK, Alucar, Björnavagnar among others), operates authorised workshops, sells original Scania spare parts, and runs a dedicated trailer service. Connected services — My Scania, Scania Driver App, Scania Färdskrivarportal digital tachograph portal, Trailer Connectivity — are layered on top of Scania's platform. The Berners Tunga Fordon AB corporate entity was formed on 1 June 2026 by reabsorbing Bil Nord i Lycksele AB; the group also acquired Stefans buss & bilplåt in Ås on 2 March 2026. Parent company is AB Berner & Co, which traces back to 1925.

The business model combines one-time revenue from vehicle sales and parts with recurring revenue from modular service agreements (Start, Drive, Cruise, ProCare, and the Berners Classic pay-as-you-go plan with 20% labour / 15% parts discounts), all carrying a Max24 24-hour uptime guarantee on eligible tiers. Financing is intermediated via Scania Finans (financial and operational leasing, hire-purchase, GAP insurance) on a captive basis, while distribution is exclusively through the eight owned branches plus a Blocket online listing for in-stock used vehicles. Customers include regional transport and logistics operators, timber and construction hauliers, crane and recovery fleets, bus operators, and municipal/energy fleets — with Härnösands Energi & Miljö among named public-sector accounts. The company employs approximately 70 people and reports market leadership across all five of its historical operating territories in 2025.

Go-to-market is enterprise field sales: named salespeople per location and product line (new trucks, used trucks, buses) manage direct relationships with local transport firms, construction companies, and municipal buyers; service and parts flow through walk-in, phone booking, and referral channels at the workshop counter. Marketing is built around an Instagram feed (@bernerstungafordon), a GDPR-compliant email newsletter, a news/blog surface, and annual After Work events at each branch, with delivery stories used as ongoing bottom-of-funnel social proof.
