Malte Månson is a renowned independent vehicle maintenance partner to truck and bus operators across Sweden. Across its 108-year track record, the company has built a reputation for dependable service day and night, deep expertise in servicing entire heavy vehicles from drivetrain to ancillary equipment, and a warm, friendly approach. In 2025, Malte Månson had a revenue of SEK 773m.

“Together with Malte, we can build a unique service offering for heavy vehicle fleets and users, delivering convenient and sustainable uptime, with only one point of contact for the customer,” says David Boman, CEO at Citira. “I am deeply impressed by the high-caliber team at Malte, which will be an excellent fit with our network of tire shops.”

“Citira felt like a natural fit for Malte. We share a position as an independent service-focused challenger. We share the same type of heavy vehicle customers for which we provide complementary services,” says Staffan Lindewald, CEO at Malte Månson. “With Citira, we can reach more customers, provide additional services to our existing ones and accelerate Malte’s growth journey.”
