Study Visit at Axel Johnson and Axfood
07 October, 2025
The first-year students in the Retail Management program were invited to Axfood's headquarters in Stockholm to learn more about Axel Johnson, Axfood and other companies in the group.
Students were hosted by Pernilla Oldmark (EVP People and Culture, Axel Johnson) and Emma Ekenstedt (Project Manager People & Culture, Axel Johnson). They first got the opportunity to learn about grocery retailing from Simone Margulies (CEO Axfood) and Shoan Etemadi (CEO Hemköp & Tempo). Then Pernilla talked about the history and future of the Axel Johnson group before handing over to RM alumni Linnéa Alexandersson and Ludvig Strand who gave an update on Emerging Tech and AI from a retail perspective.
Thank you Axel Johnson and Axfood for an insightful and exciting afternoon!
