Description
Swedish wholesale company Bergendahl Food is recruiting 60 new employees to their central warehouse in Hässleholm, Skåne. The Bergendahl Food-group includes, among others, wholesale retailers City Gross, Den Svenska Matrebellen and Matöppet.
Bergendahl Foods business expansion is a result of growing e-retailing in Sweden. These developments have prompted Bergendahl Food to make large investments into their internet services, and the launch of their new e-retail service is now resulting in a growing need for warehouse workers.
Bergendahl Food hopes to fill their need for new employees before the end of 2018.
