Despite the crisis, Saab believes in automotive suppliers in the future. Most people invest and believe in more jobs in the coming years, according to a survey by Automotive Suppliers (FKG) have done.
Almost all of the 200 companies that participated in the survey as FKG did over the summer found the prospects are good or very good.
173 of the companies have plans to invest over the next five years, which would mean new jobs.
And representatives of the FKG surprised corporate positive view, because it happened quite a few who had certain subcontractors major problems.
But the fact is that most of the subcontractors delivering products to the Swedish truck industry, which went really well the last few years. And in the car industry, it's Volvo's most subcontractors have as a customer.
Among the companies that participated in the survey, only 1.5 percent of sales relating to the manufacture of products for the Saab.
But there are, of course, individual companies are much more dependent on the Saab than that, but speaking to the whole image would the subcontractors are not affected as much about the Saab fall.
But without a Saab in Trollhattan would still much to be lost: Automotive Component Group sees great potential for an even stronger automotive industry in Sweden, and then needed it already be there.
