Miss Grand Sweden is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Swedish representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant. The title was first awarded in 2013, when a finalist in Miss Universe Sweden 2012, Claudia Sundberg, was assigned to partake in the inaugural edition of the parent international tournament in Thailand. In 2014, the license was transferred to the Miss Queen of Scandinavia Organization (MQOS), the Miss World Sweden organizer chaired by Peter Hadward, who served as the Miss Grand Sweden director until 2021.
In the early years under the direction of MQOS, Swedish representatives for Miss Grand International were elected through the Miss World Sweden pageant; however, from 2018 to 2021, all representatives were instead handpicked. History Since the establishment of the Miss Grand International in 2013, Sweden has always sent its representatives to compete; the first Swedish candidate at the mentioned tournament was Claudia Sundberg, who was appointed to the title of Miss Grand Sweden after obtaining the fifth position at the Miss Universe Sweden 2013 pageant. Sundberg then represented the country at the Miss Grand International 2013 in Thailand, but she withdrew from the contest before its final round.
Later in 2014, the titleholder was directly determined through the Miss Universe Sweden pageant; however, the license was instead transferred to another organizer, Miss Queen of Scandinavia, which also served as the licensee of the Miss World Sweden pageant. Since then one of the Miss World Sweden runners-up were assumed to be Miss Grand Sweden until the contract was terminated in 2022.
Since the first competition in 2013, the highest and only placement of Swedish representatives at Miss Grand International is the top 20 finalists, obtained in 2018 by Hanna-Louise Haag Tuvér.
