For the full year 2026, Axfood has provided an outlook for investments, new store establishments and items affecting comparability.
Investments in 2026 are expected to amount to between SEK 2,200 m and SEK 2,300 m, excluding acquisitions and right-of-use assets, of which approximately SEK 470 m pertains to automation in the new logistics centre in Kungsbacka.
During 2026, Axfood plans to maintain a high pace of expansion and establish 10–15 new Group-owned stores.
As part of the work to strengthen City Gross, operating profit for 2026 will be charged with structural costs that are expected to amount to approximately SEK 50 m. The costs are recognised in the City Gross segment and pertain primarily to structural measures for stores. The costs are classified as items affecting comparability.
