Benjamin From, 22, of Stockholm, Sweden was officially sashed as his home country’s representative for Mister Supranational 2026 during a ceremony held at Hotel Krakow in Krakow, Poland on July 21, 2026. He proudly invoked his Scandinavian heritage during his acceptance speech.
“I’m here today to represent my country with strength and heart,” From declared. Should he capture the crown on August 1, 2026, he will make history as Sweden’s first-ever Mister Supranational winner.
Benjamin From
Currently, From is studying human resources at Stockholm University, a public research university in the capital city of the country. He chose his field out of a deep fascination with human behavior, workplace dynamics, and interpersonal relations. Outside of his studies, he is an avid traveler and soccer player—crediting the sport for instilling discipline and teamwork, while travel has shown him the warmth of global communities beyond his borders.
Driven by a belief that true leadership is rooted in service, From is championing his From the Ground Up project for the pageant. The community initiative seeks to transform tourism into an act of service by uniting people through shared travel experiences.

From Stockholm to Nowy Sacz
Stockholm spans 14 islands where Lake Mälaren flows into the Baltic Sea. Officially founded in 1252 by Birger Jarl, it expanded into Scandinavia’s largest urban area and primary economic core. The city is world-famous for its well-preserved medieval center, Gamla Stan, the historic Vasa Museum, and an underground metro network that functions as the world’s longest art gallery.
Roughly 800 miles to the south lies Nowy Sącz, a historic city situated in southern Poland’s Lesser Poland Voivodeship. Officially established in 1292, the city rests in the picturesque Sądecka Valley at the confluence of the Dunajec and Kamienica rivers near the Beskid Sądecki mountains. Historically a thriving trade hub, Nowy Sącz boasts notable attractions including the 14th-century St. Margaret’s Basilica and the historic Royal Castle ruins.
Today, while Stockholm thrives as a bustling global tech hub and national capital, Nowy Sącz remains a vital tourist and cultural center within Poland’s scenic Sądecczyzna region. Though differing in scale and population, both cities share a historical connection through the 17th-century Polish-Swedish war. Swedish forces captured and looted Nowy Sącz in late 1655 before local citizens launched a successful armed uprising against the occupiers.
