Economic scenario of Sweden
Sweden is a developed, highly competitive mixed open economy. The vast majority of Swedish enterprises are privately owned and market-oriented. It is also a strong welfare state, with public-sector spending accounting up to three-fifths of GDP. Sweden’s per capital GDP, standard of living and life expectancy are among the highest in the world and the state enjoys an advanced welfare system. The Swedish economy has been in recession since 2023 and although, lower inflation and increasing wages are expected to successively improve the economic situation for households in 2024, weak growth scenario is apprehended to remain until 2025. As per the Government’s estimate, GDP is expected to increase by 0.7 percent in 2024 and 2.5 percent in 2025.
Bilateral engineering trade between India and Sweden
Indian merchandise exports to Sweden Crossed USD 1 billion and recorded a CAGR of 5.16 percent between 2018-19 and 2023-24. Engineering exports to Sweden portrayed a more impressive picture with 8.69 percent CAGR during that time period. However, the growth of exports was sporadic due to disruption of global supply chain following the Pandemic and subsequent damage in economic activities worldwide. Exports surged from USD 294.31 million in 2018-19 to USD 446.46 million in 2021-22 and then more or less maintained the shipping trend with USD 441.32 million of exports in 2023-24 despite of slowdown in developed economic regions including Sweden. India’s major engineering product groups exported to Sweden include Auto Components/Parts, Products of Iron and Steel, Electric Machinery and Equipment, IC Engines and Parts, Aircraft, Spacecraft and Parts, and Medical and Scientific Instruments among others.
The product profile of Elmia Subcontractor include Manufacturing methods and Subcontracting. Broadly, subcontracting is an integral part of almost all segments of engineering. Therefore, exports generated by subcontracting segment can’t be identified separately and rather, this sector contributes towards overall increase of India’s engineering exports.
Opportunity for Indian Engineering Subcontracting in Sweden
The entire manufacturing sector relies upon subcontracting business and engineering is also a segment of manufacturing. Sweden is a developed economy with a well-developed and high technology based industry segment especially after the fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. The smart factories of Industry 4.0 has sparked a revolution in the manufacturing industry, and Sweden is becoming one of the frontrunners. Sweden is among the top five nations globally who have smart factory initiatives in place today.
The scope for Indian engineering exporting community therefore is immense to tap the Swedish market in order to have more business and a greater connection to high-tech engineering with the emergence of Industry 4.0. Engineering MSMEs can also find themselves as subcontracting units of the Swedish engineering firms by exposing their skills and displaying their product specific expertise before their Swedish counterparts. As Swedish economy is expected to come back to growth path in 2024 and then strengthen in 2025 after a contraction in 2023, opportunity for Indian engineering to penetrate the market of Sweden will be wider.
