Bella Nilsson, called “Queen of Trash”, and her husband Thomas Nilsson, who runs the recycling group NMT Think Pink, were arrested by the police task force at their home on September 12 of this year. Another person, who works as a consultant in his group, was also arrested.
The three were subsequently arrested on suspicion of a serious environmental crime. The consultant is also a suspect in a serious money laundering offense and previously, like Bella Nilsson, was convicted, among other things, of a serious tax offense.
Bella Nilsson was released from prison two weeks ago, but a serious environmental crime is still suspected.
Expressen has contacted her on several occasions. However, his lawyer Thomas Bodström has said that his client is busy with his business.
But Expressen can now reveal that Bella Nilsson last week, on October 23, filed for bankruptcy of NM Trading och Transport AB. The company, where most of the business is conducted, is a subsidiary of the proprietary NMT Think Pink, which is wholly owned by Bella Nilsson. A bankruptcy has also been initiated in the Resurs-Recycling i Stockholm AB Group subsidiary.
NM Trading och Transport’s bankruptcy application, which was filed with the Södertörn District Court in Stockholm, shows that Bella Nilsson wanted the lawyer Morgan Kvarnström of WE Advokater as the bankruptcy administrator.
Kvarnström has just started working in bankruptcy:
– I have discovered that the business has completely stopped. In October, many of the employees left, many leasing companies that had rented machines have taken over their property. The rest of the business is mainly debt. And the pile of garbage then.
The Bella Nilsson Group Companies:
• NMT Think Pink is the parent company of the Bella Nilsson Group. She owns all the shares alone.
• The Group has three subsidiaries: NM Trading and Transport (where most of the business has been carried out), Resurs-Recycling i Stockholm AB and Sverige Säcken AB.
• At present, two of the Group companies have declared bankruptcy: NM Trading and Transport and Resurs-Recycling in Stockholm AB.
Is there a lot of debt?
– It is not clear. I have looked at the balance and have been in contact with the bank. It’s ten million crowns for the bank and ten million in accounts payable, but it will probably grow. Accounts receivable can also be found here.
Bella Nilsson has paid dividends in shares to the parent company and, from there, has obtained a dividend in shares for her of twelve million crowns. Can you talk about getting this money back?
– Certainly there are different balances for the parent company, so it is possible that they will retire and have lawsuits, but I cannot say that yet, says Morgan Kvarnström.
NM Trading and Transport has twice received the business magazine Dagens Industris Gazellpris.

NM Trading has attracted attention primarily for its pink trash bags and owner Bella Nilsson, who on her own blog calls herself “Queen of Trash.” There he writes:
“My name is Bella Nilsson and I see myself as a refined entrepreneur who loves to have a lot of iron on fire, preferably at the same time.”
Bella also writes:
“With the blog I want to inspire, train and show that you can succeed if you just want to and also give a dose of my tireless energy and creativity to both young and established entrepreneurs regardless of gender or nationality.”
For 2019, the company had sales of just over SEK 129 million and made a profit after net financial items of SEK 9.3 million.
The annual accounts for the same year show that the company made a stock dividend of SEK 5 million to parent company NMT Think Pink, where Bella Nilsson, who is the sole owner, earned a stock dividend of SEK 12 million.
Bella Nilsson and her husband live in a villa in Tullinge. His old friend, billionaire and businessman Leif-Ivan Karlsson, who was vice president of NM Trading for a few years, also lives in the area. He had previously told Expressen that he was just an advertising mainstay for the company and did not know how the business was run.
Expressen has searched for Bella Nilsson and her husband Thomas Nilsson.
