Fragbite Group

Fragbite Group AB:s (publ) subsidiary Fragbite AB is currently hosting its largest recurring event, the Swedish Cup in Counter-Strike (sv. Svenska Cupen), which comes to a close with playoffs and finals in front of a live audience in Stockholm on 12-15 November. Clas Ohlson recently joined this year's edition as a sponsor, with the Swedish Cup representing the leading Swedish retail company's first venture into esports.

The Swedish Cup is underway, and the qualifying rounds have just been concluded. On 12-13 November, the group stage will take place in Stockholm, followed by the playoffs and final in front of a live audience at the historic Musikaliska Kvarteret, Sweden's oldest concert hall.

Fragbite AB recently announced that Clas Ohlson is joining as a new sponsor. The Swedish Cup thus marks the leading Swedish retail company's first venture into esports.

“We are delighted to welcome Clas Ohlson! With a wide range of both home and technology products, they are truly a gamer's best friend. We look forward to highlighting how Clas Ohlson can add a silver lining to everyday gaming,” says Daniel Pereaux, CEO, Fragbite AB.

Esports is part of everyday life for many Swedes, and just like the gamers, we are passionate about smart solutions that make life easier and more fun. We look forward to having visibility in the Swedish Cup and to inspiring gamers across the country to discover our wide range of products,” says Gustav Hernebrant, Head of Marketing & Media, Clas Ohlson.
