The business climate in north-east Skåne is flourishing again, as Sweden's business rankings show. The municipality is back in the top 100 and is the best municipality in north-east Skåne. Twenty years ago the municipality was at the bottom of the list. But there are areas that cause worry.

The ranking is the result of a questionnaire.

”We're still not satisfied”

– It's a really good result. It's encouraging that we've climbed as regards most of the points in the questionnaire, municipal commissioner Patric Åberg (M) says in a press statement.

It has been a year of pandemic and restrictions. But Östra Göinge has tried to maintain contact with the businesses, both digitally and physically, in a safe way.

But one thing that causes worry is a question that engages both businesses and inhabitants in the municipality, namely the question of criminality and insecurity.

As far as that goes, Östra Göinge is still at the bottom of the list and has dropped 26 places to spot 271. In the previous ranking in 2020 that question was included. for the first time.

– We're still not satisfied, says Patric Åberg.
