Welcome to 2025!

Peikko 60 years hero image

 

 

Welcome to 2025!

Peikko was founded in 1965 in Lahti, Finland, so this new year sets an important milestone for us. Celebrating our 60th anniversary, we want to focus on the years to come and on building tomorrow as we always have – with innovation, curiosity, and customers at the core of everything we do.

As a Forerunner in the industry, innovations have been part of our DNA since the very beginning. In 2022, we published a book that captured Peikko's history. This year, our focus shifts toward the future through our employees, and for our customers. With six decades of accumulated experience and expertise, we are ready to lead the way forward, delivering real value to our customers.

It's the people who make the company what it is. By placing their stories at the forefront of our campaign, we celebrate Peikko employees and their unique contributions to our company culture.

Throughout 2025, we will be sharing stories from our global team members on our website and social media channels, focusing on their thoughts on four themes:

  • customer-centricity

  • sustainability

  • working at Peikko

  • being a Forerunner.  

 

Join us on this journey to discover our people, hear their thoughts, and explore what drives us at Peikko — the journey has only just begun!
