Rosti Group closed its acquisition of Alvi Group on November 2, 2026, lifting combined annual revenue to approximately €450 million and adding around 400 employees plus five manufacturing sites across Norway, Sweden, Poland and China.

Before the deal, Rosti generated roughly €400 million in revenue. Alvi contributes about €50 million, bringing the combined business to €450 million. Rosti now employs approximately 3,000 people across its global operations.

The transaction marks Rosti's first entry into Norway while deepening its manufacturing base in Sweden, Poland and China. Alvi's facilities sit in Leksvik, Norway; Tyresö, Sweden; Wrocław, Poland; and Suzhou, China. All acquired locations now operate under the Rosti banner as Rosti Norway, Rosti Sweden, Rosti Poland and Rosti China.

The deal also brings in Industriverktøy, a tooling business based in Leksvik that continues operating as Rosti Industriverktøy.

Why did Rosti want Alvi?

Founded in 1944 and headquartered in Malmö, Sweden, Rosti supplies plastic injection molding and contract manufacturing to original equipment manufacturers in medical, consumer products and industrial markets. Its integrated services span product development, engineering, manufacturing and delivery.

Alvi adds expertise in high-precision plastic components and contract manufacturing, serving industrial and medical device customers that need specialized materials, tightly controlled processes and consistent production quality.

Rosti Group CEO Jonas Persson framed the deal in operational terms: "This acquisition strengthens Rosti. We're gaining proven capabilities and experienced teams in plastics manufacturing, expanding our offer in Sweden, Poland and China, while adding Norway to our footprint. Combined with our existing operations across USA, Europe and Asia, we can now serve our customers even more comprehensively. The integration of Alvi into Rosti Group allows us to leverage our scale and expertise across new and different markets."

What changes for customers?

The companies say the combination broadens services on both sides. Alvi's customers gain access to Rosti's global manufacturing network, engineering expertise, research and development capabilities and innovation resources. Rosti's customers benefit from Alvi's regional presence and specialized manufacturing capabilities.

The integration also targets multinational customers that need production in several countries at once. A geographically diversified network gives those customers flexibility in managing supply chains, production capacity and regional sourcing.

For medical device manufacturers, the tie-up matters at the component level: access to specialized plastics production and contract manufacturing can support development and production of parts used in healthcare applications.

Alvi's management backed the deal. Magnus Emeus, CEO of Alvi Group, said: "Rosti is the right home for Alvi's customers, people and operations. They have the platform, resources and market presence to take what we've built to a higher level. Our teams will benefit from joining a stronger, more established group while our customers will gain access to broader capabilities and geographic reach."

What comes next?

Rosti plans to extend its sustainability practices across the expanded organization, including processes aligned with Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive requirements.

The ownership backdrop stays the same: Nordstjernan, a Swedish family-controlled investment company, has owned Rosti since 2010. The acquisition advances Rosti's strategy of building a larger international manufacturing platform through complementary capabilities and geographic expansion.

With €450 million in combined revenue and 3,000 employees, Rosti says it will offer a broader range of manufacturing solutions to customers across Europe, Asia and the United States. The question now is how fast the Swedish group deploys that enlarged footprint.
