History and values of our Group

We have grown from strong roots by creating synergy between the many cultures in our organisation.

We maintain our roots while simultaneously embracing future change, which is why it is common for us to use both brand names. The name WICA is derived from our founder’s initials, Wilhelm Carlsson.

Arneg originates from the Italian words ARredamento NEgozi, which translates to ‘retail equipment’ in English.

Back in 1963, Arneg’s two young founders, Roberto Marzaro and Luigi Finco, decided to expand their range of shelving and furnishings for food stores by adding refrigerated displays made by skilled local craftsmen.

Since then, thanks to firm principles and moral values, Arneg has grown into a leading international group capable of developing and delivering equipment and services to the entire retail world.

Arneg has since 2005 been represented by Wica Cold through the brand Arneg Nordic, in the Nordics and in the Baltic States.
