“It is a great honor to receive the award as this year’s Golden Ambassador. I am enormously proud and happy about our nomination and that our work is appreciated and recognized – but without committed employees and farmers/owners who make fantastic efforts in our business every day, this would not have been possible. I would therefore like to take the opportunity to express a big thanks to all of them and to Kristianstad municipality for the award.”
