Gnosjö region

The Gnosjö region (Swedish: Gnosjöregionen) consists of the four municipalities of Sweden Gislaved, Gnosjö, Vaggeryd and Värnamo in Jönköping County in southern Sweden. It is named after Gnosjö, but is more properly abbreviated as the GGVV-region.

The area is nationally renowned by a high number of small industries, enterprises and a high employment rate. Many industries are based in the region, giving rise to the concept of a Gnosjö Spirit (Swedish: Gnosjöanda) that prevails in the area.
