Pakkasvakka to build a new automated warehouse for finished products adjacent to Apetit’s frozen foods factory in Säkylä

The new automated warehouse will have a capacity of approximately 16,000 pallet spaces. The warehouse will be operated by Pakkasvakka.

The new warehouse for finished products will support the growth objectives of both Apetit and Pakkasvakka.

“We are excited to further deepen our cooperation with Apetit. Construction work will begin immediately. This investment is clearly the most significant in Pakkasvakka’s history,” says Tuure Hulmi, CEO of Pakkasvakka.

The automated warehouse for finished products will improve logistical efficiency and respond to increased capacity needs. The aim is for the warehouse to enter the testing phase already later this year.

Currently, Apetit’s finished products are stored in Pakkasvakka’s facilities outside the factory area. The new warehouse will be built directly adjacent to Apetit’s buildings.

“We are very pleased to be able to implement a modern warehousing solution together with a long-term partner. The new automated warehouse creates opportunities to further develop operations and, at the same time, significantly reduces logistical needs compared to the current situation,” says Ari Kulmala, Production Director at Apetit.
