Nobia Finland relocates its local production to Denmark
Nobia Finland has decided to transfer its local production of Novart-kitchens from Nastola to the Nobia Group’s manufacturing facility in Ølgod, Denmark. While sustaining a Nordic production, Nobia Finland will secure its long-term presence and competitiveness by utilising benefits from the Nobia Groups’ supply chain network.
– Finland is, and will continue to be, a strategically important market to Nobia. We are invested in the Finnish kitchen market, and we will continue to serve our Finnish customers and franchisees with the same commitment as always. By utilizing Nobia Group’s Nordic supply chain network, we will be better positioned to effectively serve the Finnish market with high-quality and sustainable Novart-branded kitchens. In addition, we will also be able to offer a wider range of kitchens for our Finnish customers, says Kristoffer Ljungfelt, CEO of Nobia.
Nobia will continue to operate a commercial organisation in Finland to further strengthen the Novart brand and franchisee store network. Nobia Finland will also continue to provide customer service in Finnish. The relocation of production from Finland to Denmark will impact maximum 135 employees in Nobia Finland and will be completed during the third quarter of 2025.
– This is a difficult message to give to our employees today, especially given their dedication and hard work during these challenging times. For decades, our local factory in Nastola has been the driving force behind the quality of our Finnish kitchen brands, including Novart. A simple thank you is not enough to convey the appreciation for the dedication and valuable work that has been put in over the years. Yet, we must continue to evolve. Harnessing being part of a larger company and developing a strong supply chain that can deliver on our brand promise is crucial in today’s competitive kitchen market, says Kari Roos, Head of Sales at Nobia Finland.
