LARSSON History
In the end of the 1940s, Jörgens father, Gösta Larsson, had become engaged in his father, Erik Larsson, work. An education at technical college and some clever inventions resulted in several patents of his own for starch machines.

The actual processes were also developed and it was Gösta who led this work, with his position becoming more consolidated both in Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia. It became more and more difficult for their competitors. “We had got off to a good start.
