- We are happy to welcome Stebule's owners and employees to Green Landscaping Group. Stebule is a company that delivers services with very high quality, strong customer focus and good profitability. In recent years, the company has increased its market share in Vilnius, which is proof that the company's strategy is successful. In my eyes, Stebule is a good first company in a new geography, says Johan Nordström, CEO, Green Landscaping Group.

- As an entrepreneur in this business, I have for some time been looking for a context where the company can continue to develop and after taking up the dialogue with Green Landscaping Group, I have found an industrial actor who understands my business and the market in which Stebule operates. My overall impression after my meetings with Green Landscaping Group is that Stebule will join a group of skilled entrepreneurs who will be able to help us further develop our competitiveness in Lithuania. We see additional advantages in being part of an international group that can bring a lot of knowledge to the Lithuanian market, says Stanislovas Tamulevičius, founder of Stebule.
