PGA Sweden National

What PGA Sweden National does

PGA Sweden National (legally "The National") operates a multi-course golf resort in Bara, just outside Malmö in the Skåne region of Sweden, and is designated "Sveriges nationalarena för golf" (Sweden's national arena for golf). The core product portfolio comprises three golf courses — the 18-hole parkland Lakes Course, the 18-hole Links Course with rolling landscapes, and the shorter Academy Course for beginners and practice — supported by The Range, an indoor/outdoor experience-driven driving range with simulator golf, putting, darts, and shuffleboard that operates year-round in climate-adapted facilities. Hospitality and ancillary services include on-site hotel suites accommodating up to four guests, a seasonal-cuisine restaurant, conference facilities, professional golf coaching, custom club fitting, footgolf, and amateur tournaments.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer model with revenue from greenfee, stay-and-play golf packages (summer, off-season, and 2027 forward bookings), hotel accommodation, F&B and catering, range cards, simulator hours, coaching, and custom fitting. Corporate clients are served through the four-tier Business Club program (Business Basic, Business Champion, Business Core, Business Corporate) targeting corporate golf, conferences, and team-building activities. Distribution channels include the company's own website (thenational.se), the MinGolf booking system, on-site reception, and referral listings such as Leadingcourses.com. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, investors, or funding rounds.

The most recent strategic action was the grand opening of The Range on 5 June 2025, opened by professional golfer Peter Hanson and described as one of the Nordic region's largest and most modern experience-driven driving ranges — extending the venue's revenue capture beyond the Nordic outdoor golf season and broadening the addressable market from traditional golfers to corporate and social visitors.
