An Emmaljunga pram is more than a pram. It is a Swedish family tradition that stretches back to 1925 when the company founder, Henry L. Persson, manufactured the first Emmaljunga pram in his home village of Emmaljunga in the southern part of Sweden.
During the 1930s the prams were manufactured using very simple, traditional methods. Then, as now, there were no shortcuts to creating happy customers and the craftsmanship was of a genuinely high standard.
During the turbulent 1940s the demand for Emmaljunga prams was so high that the company continued to expand. The old wooden buildings were replaced by a modern factory and the company went from a workshop to an industry.
During the 1960s and the 1970s high birth rates and social reforms helped Emmaljunga sales to reach new record levels. The factory was modernised and extended in several stages and the production volume reached 100,000 prams per year.
During the 1980s and the 1990s the company continued to expand through export and with the aid of the sound thinking and decision making which still guides this successful family company after 85 years. To this day, the Swedish craftsmanship lives on and Emmaljunga products are now available in most parts of the world.
“We think, that delivery of the highest quality at the best possible price has a common interest to us and to our valued customers.”
