Celemi Apples & Oranges

Celemi Apples & Oranges is a Swedish board simulation designed to teach corporate employees fundamental business acumen. It helps players understand complex finance mechanics through hands-on manipulation of income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow.

The simulation grounds its gameplay in the actual mechanics of corporate finance, specifically focusing on income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow management. Participants must physically move game pieces to represent capital, inventory, and operational costs.

The simulation was developed by Celemi, a well-known Swedish learning design company that focuses on corporate training. They specialize in creating engaging board games that simplify complex business strategies.

It is typically played as a collaborative workshop where groups of employees physically sit around a board to run a mock manufacturing company. By competing to generate the most shareholder value, players naturally learn how day-to-day business decisions impact overall financial health.
