I strongly believe that it is good for us to be here and to develop into an even more significant player in the industry with the support of the new owner”, comments Jarmo Villman, Suomen Vuokrakontti’s former main owner and current board member .
“It’s great to have Auroora Yhtiöt as the new owner. The acquisition significantly strengthens Suomen Vuokrakontti’s position as Finland’s leading supplier of special containers and their service solutions. As part of Auroora’s Industrial Products and Services segment we can serve our current and future customers even better and more versatile”, comments Suomen Vuokrakontti’s Chief Executive Officer Jyrki Malinen.
“Suomen Vuokrakontti has a long history and convincing evidence of serving a wide customer base with various modular solutions. The company is well managed and its profitability is at an excellent level. The need for modular and movable solutions seems to be constantly growing and expanding to new industries. I am very satisfied that Suomen Vuokrakontti’s former owners trusted Auroora Yhtiöt when choosing a new owner for the company. Suomen Vuokrakontti’s former main owner and long-time entrepreneur Jarmo Villman has also promised to continue on the company’s board. As Suomen Vuokrakontti now has the broader shoulders of Auroora Yhtiöt behind it, I find the company’s future prospects very interesting”, comments Jukka Marttila, Business Director of Auroora Yhtiöt.
