As a result of the increased demand for radar and sensor systems and a high recruitment rate, Saab is expanding its operations in the Gothenburg region in Sweden with another facility in Mölnlycke, Härryda municipality. This enables Saab to continue to grow and increase its delivery capacity in the region

Saab in Gothenburg develops and produces airborne and ground-based radar- and sensor systems such as the GlobalEye airborne early warning and control aircraft and the Giraffe radar family. Saab has already expanded its production capacity for radar and sensors by establishing new facilities at a number of sites, including in Halmstad in Sweden, Finland and the United Kingdom.

- In order to meet the high demand for our world-leading capabilities, we are expanding our operations in the Gothenburg region with additional office space and production capacity. Gothenburg has a strong cluster of microwave competence as well as universities and other industry. We look forward to continuing to grow and create jobs in the region,” says Carl-Johan Bergholm, Head of Saab’s business area Surveillance.

Saab will keep its existing Gothenburg site in Kallebäck and will add another multifunctional facility with capacity for around 500 work stations in Mölnlycke. Saab currently has around 3,200 employees in Gothenburg.
