To create profitable and long-term growth, Saab has placed clear focus on increasing its nternational presence and sales outside of Sweden. Its new and expanded UK office will help spearhead the company’s international presence and export sales into markets with strong demand and with the right conditions for profitable growth. The new regional operation will be headed by Tomas Samuelsson, President and Head of Market Area Europe and Greater Middle East. He is currently Head of Saab Business Area Dynamics.

The latest decision represents a commitment on the part of Saab to continue to expand its operational base in London, while also underlining the importance of the UK as a major partner and location for driving international defence and security business opportunities.
