Svedbro Smide is owned by brothers Adam and Daniel Brånby and is part of the family-owned company Ekstigen AB. Within the same company group, you will also find:

  • Gränsfors Bruk, which manufactures hand-forged axes in the forge in Gränsfors.

Svalan Logistik AB
Gärdsgårdsvägen 2

In 1985, Svedbro Smide’s former owner, Gabriel Brånby, purchased the bankrupt Gränsfors Bruks AB and merged the operations under the name Gränsfors Bruks AB.

Svedbro Smide focused on wrecking bars and forestry tools, while Gränsfors Bruk manufactured axes and other hand tools. In 1988, Gränsfors Bruk sold the forestry tool division to Sandvik, and in 2005, the businesses were separated again. The Gränsfors Bruks Wrecking Bar Forge in Gnarp became Gränsfors Smide in Gnarp AB, while axe manufacturing continued at Gränsfors Bruks Axe Forge.

In recent years, Gabriel’s sons Adam Brånby and Daniel Brånby have taken over the leadership, and in January 2015, the company in Gnarp returned to its original name, Svedbro Smide AB, to distinguish itself from the sister company Gränsfors Bruk AB and reconnect with its history. Despite significant economic challenges, Svedbro Smide has continued to grow and now sells its tools in over thirty countries.

Svedbro Smide is owned by brothers Adam and Daniel Brånby and is part of the family-owned company Ekstigen AB. Within the same company group, you will also find:
