Nordic Kitchen Group brings together some of Sweden’s oldest and most distinct kitchen brands, including the market leader in sustainable kitchen renovation, a classic brand for timeless design, and a premium approach to architect-designed kitchens. What they have in common is Swedish manufacturing, craftsmanship and customisation.
With 150 years of Swedish kitchen craftsmanship under its roof, Nordic Kitchen Group owns, supports and develops five niche brands in the Nordic market. Its portfolio includes well-known and specialised brands that together cover larger parts of the market, by offering everything from smart, circular kitchen renovation to exclusive, architect-designed quality kitchens and flexible solutions for both private homes and the professional market.
“Nordic Kitchen Group is a platform for kitchen brands with Swedish production and quality, a focus on customised solutions, and commitment to sustainability and simplicity,” says Pontus Ekman, CEO. “Although each brand serves a different customer need, they are united by the same belief: Swedish craftsmanship, local production and kitchens designed to last for generations.”

Sustainable kitchen renovations
The market leader in sustainable kitchen renovation, where existing frames are reused instead of replaced, is Härjedalskök. “This is a sustainable alternative that makes it possible to create the feeling of a new kitchen in a cost- and time-effective way, and with a smaller impact on the environment,” says Ekman. “It’s quick and simple, and good both for the wallet and the environment.”
The brand was founded in 1995 with a vision of changing the kitchen industry. “We’ve developed a method that makes it possible to custom-fit new kitchen doors and drawers to your existing cabinet frames,” explains the CEO. “Our ambition is to offer smart kitchen renovations where you don’t have to replace everything and where we help avoid throwing away what already works. Many of our customers are surprised at how quickly they can renew their kitchen with our method, it only takes a few hours.”
Constantly developing, Härjedalskök has also taken a major step forward in modern design in recent years, making the brand a highly relevant and inspiring alternative for the design-conscious customer.

Timeless kitchens for modern homes
Founded in 1924, Hagaköket is a classic Swedish kitchen brand with a proud history of craftsmanship and design tradition. “For more than a century, Hagaköket has evolved alongside Swedish homes while helping define kitchen design for generations,” says Ekman. “The common thread has always been a dedication to timeless design, quality and functionality. Our complete kitchen solutions bring together practical everyday use and enduring Scandinavian aesthetics.”
Hagaköket offers kitchens through leading builders’ merchants as well as through its own digital platforms and showrooms. Manufactured in Tärnsjö, Sweden, every kitchen is made to order, allowing customers to tailor dimensions, layouts and design details to suit their home and lifestyle. “What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to quality, craftsmanship and longevity,” says Ekman. “Every kitchen is built with great attention to detail and produced in Sweden by skilled craftsmen. Combined with a broad range of styles and solutions, we create timeless kitchens designed to meet Swedish preferences and stand the test of time.”

A kitchen like no other
The premium brand, Canadaköket, signifies bespoke craftsmanship. “With roots from 1872, this is one of Sweden’s oldest kitchen brands,” explains Ekman. “Here, the focus is on craftsmanship, exclusive custom-built kitchens and bespoke design, where traditional fine carpentry meets modern architecture and design.”

Canadaköket is one of Sweden’s most exclusive kitchen manufacturers, and every kitchen is made to order. “We create your dream kitchen, with custom colours and material choices – just the way you want it,” he says. “These are exclusive kitchen solutions with the utmost quality and craftsmanship.”
The kitchen is the heart of the home. “Ultimately, a great kitchen is about more than cabinets, worktops and appliances. It’s about creating a place where people connect, celebrate, share stories and build memories together,” adds Ekman. “By designing kitchens that invite people to gather, Nordic Kitchen Group’s brands help create something truly valuable: a richer everyday life.”
