We don’t know if it is has to with the climate. Or if it simply is in the blood. But one thing is certain, there is something special with the mentality in Jämtland. That we are a very stubborn people is no cliché. When we do something, we don’t give up until we have gone all the way.

To Lundhags, their heritage is essential and together with their values; authentic, nordic, sustainable and functional this creates a foundation to build a solid and strong brand. In all branding and communication, we want the Lundhags brand to come across homogeneously, and as a uniform brand.

Brands need to stay on top of these changes to successfully reach their audiences, especially as consumers become savvier and more sceptical to what the brands are saying and listen more to peers and influencers.

Their aim is to deserve a place in our customers mind and heart through our communication. We will create more valuable content, develop fruitful partnerships and telling stories to inspire and educate our customers. We believe we can make a positive impact on people’s lives through the outdoor products and experiences we create.
