Scandinavian Green is a strategic, international sustainability consultancy founded in 2009.

Who We Are

Scandinavian Green LLC is led by principal consultant Erica Landin-Lofving. Erica has served as Chief Sustainability Officer for a NASDAQ-listed wine group and was most recently a director specializing in strategic sustainability, climate risk, and materiality at a leading global consulting firm. Most of her work has been in consumer goods, particularly food and beverage, but she has additional industry experience in finance, biotech, cleantech, and media. Erica is Swedish-American with global professional experience. She has consulted, with breaks for senior operational roles, since 2009.

She thrives in both strategic and hands-on work—equally at home diving into data or rolling up her sleeves for operational projects. The core theme in all her roles? Making sense of complex, information-heavy challenges and translating them into clear, engaging insights for diverse audiences.

  • Erica holds an MSc in Medical Biology and has pursued continuing education in Sustainability Leadership (Harvard), ESG (Berkeley Law and Harvard Business School) and viticulture (UC Davis). She is also a certified ESG Investment Advisor through EFFAS, the European Federation of Financial Analysts.

    Her international background began early, traveling the world with her father, a producer of natural history documentaries for National Geographic, Discovery, and public television. She speaks five—sometimes six—languages, depending on whether Spanish is cooperating that day.

    From her previous base in Stockholm, Sweden, Erica has served clients in Europe including ICA Group (the largest grocery retailer of northern Europe), IKEA, Systembolaget (the largest buyer of wine globally), and Karo Pharma. In the US, she has worked with clients including Coca-Cola and Vintage Wine Estates. Her articles have been published in ICON Magazine (where she was food trend editor at large), Wine Enthusiast, Conde Nast Travel, Meininger’s Wine Business International, Gourmet Magazine among many others. She recently relocated from the beaches of sunny Santa Barbara to the skiing- and hiking friendly mountains around Park City, Utah.
