Last year, Colmec, Lapin Kumi, and several tire shops across Sweden and Finland came together to form a new tire services group, with the working name CTS. In November, the group announced a new SEK 1.3bn bond financing. Now, Kåve Däck – a leading tire service provider & retreader in Southern Sweden - is joining the new group.

KåVe Däck, originally founded in 1974 as Kristianstads Vulkverkstad and renamed in 1976, has grown into a leading tire service provider in Skåne. Today, the company operates 4 tire shops in Kristianstad, Hässleholm, Osby, and Åstorp, as well as its own retreading site. KåVe serves all vehicle types, but with a particular emphasis on heavy trucks. Since taking over the business in 2003, KåVe’s owner Bo Persson has demonstrated remarkable resilience and entrepreneurship, successfully rebuilding the company after a devastating fire in 2004 and then driving continuous expansion throughout Skåne. Under his leadership, KåVe Däck has become known for its appreciated service and long trusted customer relations.

”We are thrilled to welcome Bo Persson and the KåVe Däck team to our team of entrepreneurs" said David Boman, CEO of CTS. "KåVe has for a long time established itself as a leading service provider in Northern Skåne, with a reputation and degree of service second to none. Bosse brings a warm heart and great entrepreneurial spirit with multiple ideas for expansion, I could not imagine a bitter fit with CTS”.


”My father Sigurd Persson started the business in 1974, and after more than 50 years of family ownership, it was time to find a new partner for KåVe Däck to enable Kåve to continue to grow further” says Bo Persson, owner of KåVe Däck. “When CTS approached me, I felt that this was a very good solution for me and the other employees, our customers and our suppliers. I look forward to developing the company further within the CTS group”.


KåVe Däck will continue to operate under the same name and with the same team. Bo Persson will continue to lead KåVe and become a co-owner in CTS Group.
