200 kilos of avocados shipped from Malaga to Sweden in electric car

Pelle Lundborg is a successful Swedish entrepreneur who decided to move to
Malaga in December 2006. He did it after meeting a girl from Fuengirola in
London, where he was living at the time. 

He then moved to the Costa del Sol, where he still resides. He is currently
half-retired from his company, THQ Nordic, founded 25 years ago and
specialized in the design of video games (it currently has about 2,000
employees), although he still does some work from time to time. Lundborg,
however, likes to keep himself busy, so a year ago, he decided to buy a farm
in Carratraca, which he has named Solmark. His goal is to obtain a high
quality organic production in order to export it to Sweden, and one of his
first promotional actions is, at the very least, striking.

Last Thursday (March 21), the entrepreneur departed aboard a 100% electric
car, a Tesla Model 3, in which aimed to travel 3,700 kilometers to his
hometown, Linkoping. In the trunk, he carried 200 kilos of avocados, which
he harvested a day before leaving on a farm in Pizarra, as the trees in his
own farm are still young and don't yet bear fruit. "The idea is to show that
they can be shipped from the farm to the customer's door in Sweden without
an ecological footprint," says the entrepreneur. He has done this as much as
a marketing action as for the pleasure of doing something different,
interesting and philanthropic. "It's about promoting the business, but also
about improving the environment, changing mentalities and showing that it is
actually possible," he explains.

From charger to charger
He traveled with a friend and the trip could be followed in real time
through the Facebook page of the Solmark farm. They planned to spend two
nights on the trip, so they expected to arrive on Saturday afternoon or
evening. The route was planned relying mainly on the network of chargers and
superchargers that Tesla has already set up across Europe, and that can be
located through its mobile application and with the car's service panel.

Pelle Lundborg, who has a farm in Carratraca, aims to raise awareness among
consumers about organic products and climate change

Pelle Lundborg is a successful Swedish businessman who decided to move to
Malaga in December 2006 . He did it after meeting a girl from Fuengirola in
London, where he lived then. He moved to the Costa del Sol and here he
continues. He is currently half-retired from his company, THQ Nordic ,
founded 25 years ago and specialized in the design of video games (currently
has about 2000 employees), although he still continues to work in a timely
manner. But Lundborg is a restless person, so a year ago he decided to buy a
farm in Carratraca , which he has named Solmark. Its intention is to have an
organic production of very high quality to export to Sweden. And one of his
first actions to publicize the business is, at least, striking.

And is that the entrepreneur left yesterday aboard a 100% electric car, a
Tesla Model 3, which aims to travel 3,700 kilometers to his hometown,
Linköpin g. In the trunk he carries 200 kilos of avocados, which he picked
up the day before on a farm in Pizarra, because his, he clarifies, has young
trees that still do not bear fruit . "The idea is to demonstrate that they
can be sent from the farm to the customer's door in Sweden, and without
ecological footprint," says the entrepreneur. He does it as much as a
marketing action as for the pleasure of doing different, interesting and
philanthropic things. "It's about promoting the business, but also about
improving the environment, changing mentalities and teaching what is
possible through the example," he explains.

From charger to charger
Travel with a friend and the tour can be followed in real time through the
Facebook page of the Solmark farm . They plan to do two nights on the trip,
so they expect to arrive on Saturday afternoon or evening. To draw the route
has relied mainly on the network of chargers and superchargers (fast) that
Tesla has already installed throughout Europe, and that can be found in its
mobile application and in the service panel of the car. In addition, they
will spend the night in hotels that already have this type of equipment.
However, the route will vary depending on the circumstances that are
encountered (meteorology, energy availability, etc.).

Your trip, of 3,700 kilometers, can be followed in real time on social
networks

Pelle Lundborg bought 15 hectares of land «to disconnect from stressed
life». But since the abandonment and the tons of garbage that was found, it
has turned it into a new vital and business project, where the olive oil
produced by its trees is exported to Sweden as a product of 'delicatessen'.
In addition, it has launched a program of sponsorship of olive trees, where
sponsors can learn about the production process. "Oil is still something
very exotic for Swedes."

In addition, it has been proposed to combat depopulation in Carratraca and
other towns in the area , by exporting directly to Sweden small productions
of tropical fruits (such as avocado and custard apple) under the label of
organic product, something that has a very high demand in the Nordic
countries. "Now the fruit always comes from far away and in containers, so
the quality is not good." That is why I have chosen avocado as the flagship
product of this long and striking promotional journey from one end of Europe
to the other.)
