Fjällräven has become increasingly international in the past years, expanding particularly fast in North America and Asia.

Outgoing International Sales Manager John Are Lindstad was essential to the success of the international ventures, commented CEO Martin Axelheid. His successors will be expected to drive positive change by combining their insights on the German and North American markets.
