GolfStar is the Nordic region’s leading operator in the management and development of golf facilities, now operating a total of 29 golf courses across Sweden, Finland, and Spain. Through the acquisition of Hinton Golf, GolfStar takes an important step in its long-term strategy to expand both nationally and internationally.

“Johan Hinton and I have been in discussions for several years. I am proud and very pleased that we can now welcome Hinton Golf to the GolfStar family. We continue to grow into new regions in Sweden – first Stockholm, then Gothenburg, and now we are establishing GolfStar in Skåne with a flying start through a strong cluster of three golf facilities,” says Tony Trigell, founder of GolfStar.

Hinton Golf – a well-known name in Skåne

Hinton Golf, led by Johan Hinton, has for many years been a well-known and respected name in the golfing community of Skåne.

“The golf industry has changed significantly over the years, and to ensure a long-term and sustainable future for our facilities, Tony and I began discussions several years ago. Now it feels completely right to pass the torch to GolfStar, which shares our passion for the game and sees the potential to further develop our courses. For members and guests, this means new opportunities and even better golf experiences,” says Johan Hinton, owner of Hinton Golf.

“The acquisition of Hinton Golf is a valuable addition for GolfStar. We look forward to integrating Rönnebäck, Kvarnby, and Sofiedal into our concept and being able to offer our existing and new customers in Skåne even more golf for their money,” says Stefan Brikell, CEO of GolfStar.

With this acquisition, GolfStar strengthens its position as the Nordic region’s leading golf operator and lays the foundation for continued expansion – with Skåne as an important new growth region.
