This is Ekman

Ekman has 169 employees working in 20 offices throughout the world. In addition, we have a well established international network of agents and representatives covering every market where pulp or paper is produced or consumed.

The operations are coordinated from our three hubs in Gothenburg, Miami and Hong Kong. These three offices are fully equipped trading houses, capable of providing all of the different services we offer to our principals.

All other offices within the Ekman Group are relatively smaller units, focused on the sales and marketing efforts for only one or a few markets.

The three main operational divisions within the Ekman Group are Pulp, Paper and Recovered Material. Currently Pulp accounts for about 63 % of the total volume, Paper for 20 % and Recovered Material for 17%.

Ekman works with a matrix organization. We have local managers responsible for each individual office’s total operation but also division leaders responsible for different product segment worldwide. The support functions, such as finance, administration and IT are organized in the same way.
