The worldwide leading manufacturer of housing equipment, the Big Dutchman group, receives prominent support on the Finnish market: as of 15 March, 2006, Kesko Agro Ltd. took over the distribution of pig housing equipment as exclusive Big Dutchman distributor in the "Country of Thousand Lakes".
Kesko Agro is a 100% subsidiary company of the market leader in the Finnish trading sector, the listed Kesko Oyj, that achieved a turnover of 8.3 billion Euros in the past year. "Kesko Agro is a big name in the agricultural machinery industry with several branch offices throughout the country.
The company with its 1100 employees has a turnover of 1 billion Euro. We are looking at brilliant possibilities, also in our trade", says Area Sales Manager Josef Kordes, responsible for sales in the Finnish market at Big Dutchman Pig Equipment GmbH located in Vechta-Calveslage, Germany.
Kesko Agro Group Director Eero Pajulahti is also very optimistic: "Innovative technology, unsurpassed know-how and fast service: we have already been working together with Big Dutchman in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania closely and successfully for several years now. This is a very good foundation for a fruitful co-operation, also in our home country."
