Abstract
ABSTRACT This article traces the role that Jewish families with an Eastern European background played in the garment industry in both Sweden and Finland. It examines two cases of family firms with a Jewish ownership. From this starting point, it discusses why and how the family firms were important in shaping the Scandinavian Jewish Diaspora. I show how family ties are needed for understanding the entrepreneurial history of the community. Secondly, I discuss why these themes have been relatively absent in Nordic garment histories, as well as the tensions between Nordic business history and Jewish migration history.
