Refueling a truck today costs almost nine thousand kroner for a full tank.
Truck driver Stefan Larsson mutters when filling the tank of his truck crew.
- I think this is too damn.
It hits the wrong people, he says.
The diesel price is approaching SEK 25 per liter and there is great concern in the haulage industry.
Serious situation
At Sundfrakt in Sundsvall, which is a truck center and coordinator for many smaller hauliers, it is stated that the pain threshold was reached a long time ago.
- It is a serious situation for the haulage business, states Christan Wasell who is business area manager at Sundfrakt.
At a petrol station in Sundsvall, many small business owners shake their heads at the price indication on the petrol pump.
- I think it's awful.
It is quite brutal, says Davy Holmberg who is a car dealer.
"Losing a million in one year"
Nils Andersson in Selånger west of Sundsvall raises pigs and here too the war in Ukraine has consequences.
Partly because of the price of diesel but also because the price of grain that he feeds the pigs with is soaring.
And they now risk increasing even more, given that Russia and Ukraine are by far the largest grain producers in Europe.
- A little roughly speaking, this means a million kronor in loss in one year, says Nils Andersson.
