For the past four years, Circle K has mapped the sausage habits of Swedes, to find out how much sausage an average Swede eats each year.
The survey was carried out by the Sifo panel between 4 and 11 September 2024. A total of 3,081 randomly selected people aged 16 to 79 were interviewed.
Those who took part in the survey correspond to a nationally representative sample.

– If there is something we at Circle K have in common with the Swedish people, it is that we appreciate sausages. We cherish a high meat content, a wide range and Swedish ingredients and therefore we are extra proud of how many people choose to eat with us out at the stations. We feel secure in the fact that we actually have Sweden’s best sausage menu to offer all sausage lovers, says Erika Söderlund, communications manager at Circle K in one press release.
