The original was Swedish Airplanes or something like that AB. but as you know the car division got sold off to GM

Another is the cranes that you see on lorries HIAB just Hi for the crane part with AB on the end.

Of coarse this must not be confused with ABBA though they earnt more money than Scania and Volvo put together

ABBA is also the largest tined fish producer in the West

Italy = A.S.R.L

Some Italian firms also have "SpA", which is very similar to our PLC.
