GBJ Bygg AB is a Swedish construction company founded in 1945, operating primarily in southern Sweden but also present in the Stockholm region. The company’s headquarters are in Växjö, but it maintains offices in several locations including Jönköping, Gothenburg, Värnamo, and Borgholm. Its operations encompass the development and construction of residential properties—both condominiums and rental apartments—alongside commercial, educational, and public buildings. With an estimated 167 employees and an annual revenue of approximately $53 million, GBJ Bygg has established itself as a significant player in Sweden's construction sector.
The company is known for projects ranging from urban housing developments to new schools and public buildings. One current example includes the construction of a new F–6 school in Alafors, designed to accommodate 400 students and integrate facilities such as a large kitchen, dining hall, library, and full-size sports hall. GBJ Bygg has also developed large residential areas, like “Trummens Strand” in Växjö, a modern housing development with 144 apartments built using cross-laminated timber—a technique the company has pioneered for its ecological benefits.
GBJ Bygg’s approach emphasizes sustainable building practices, including the use of massive wood construction and energy-efficient solutions. Their work includes both new construction and renovation projects, serving corporate, municipal, and private sector clients. They also participate in land development, either purchasing land for projects or partnering with landowners.
