Slettvoll creates timeless furniture, focusing on craftsmanship, quality, and Scandinavian design. Founded in Norway, the company has a rich heritage starting in 1951, with production located in Stranda, in northwest Norway.
Over the years, Slettvoll has become a symbol of elegance, simplicity, and durability. Today, Slettvoll counts 18 stores across Scandinavia and an exclusive clientele, selecting their Scandinavian design made for living.
Premium products like Slettvoll furniture have premium logistics needs. The furniture reaches the stores and end-customers directly from their warehouse. But before it reaches the warehouse, Slettvoll furniture is carefully and promptly transported from East Asia – exclusively by LEMAN.
About five or six years ago, we faced significant disturbances with container shipments. At that time, we shipped around 60 containers and LEMAN handled about 25 of them. The following year, all our containers were moved to LEMAN. As I always say, problems generate cooperation.

Generous sharing of knowledge, prompt responses, and a personal touch are what make Stig see his LEMAN partners as a part of his team.
“I have to have good partners because the logistics department at Slettvoll consists of just one person—me. That’s why LEMAN has been such a great partner for us. For me, the most important factors are service, feedback, and a personal touch.
Our partners at LEMAN are so hands-on and it makes all the difference. I can always pick up the phone and ask, ‘How are the strikes going? Why is there a delay?’ and I’ll always get clear, knowledgeable answers.”
Stig Lillebø Head of Logistis, Slettvoll Lifestyle Partner
As to what has maintained Slettvoll’s loyalty to LEMAN after all these years, Stig points out two aspects: Direct communication and Expertise.
The first is feedback – Always. If I send an email, I get a response within two minutes.
The second is LEMAN’s deep knowledge. The team has complete control over the entire logistics chain, and no matter what I ask, I know they will always have a good answer.
