“We opened our first store in Västerås back in 2001, and we know our customers really value us. It feels fantastic to strengthen our already strong presence,” says Andreas Helgesson, Country Operations Manager.

The new Clas Ohlson store is located in Hälla retail area, east of the city centre. This means Clas Ohlson now has stores in the two largest retail areas in Västerås, as well as in the city centre.

“We have secured a highly visible and easily accessible location right by the E18 motorway. With our three stores, it will be easy for everyone in Västerås and the surrounding areas to reach us,” says Andreas Helgesson.

The store opening is Clas Ohlson’s eighth and final store opening of the 2025/2026 financial year. In total, Clas Ohlson now has 249 stores.
