After-Work event in Stockholm kicked off Nurminen Logistics’ 140th anniversary year
In 2026, Nurminen Logistics celebrates its 140 years old history. The anniversary year began with a warm and relaxed after-work event in Stockholm, bringing together customers and partners from across Sweden.
Logistics that connects markets and industries
Olli Pohjanvirta, President and CEO of Nurminen Logistics, opened the evening with reflections on the past year and the company’s development in a rapidly evolving market. In his speech, he highlighted the completion of the Swedish subsidiary along with new services and routes that enable Nurminen Logistics to meet customers’ growing need for efficient and sustainable transport solutions.
In his speech, CEO Olli Pohjanvirta highlighted the importance of rail transport in the company’s growth. He discussed the collaboration with the Swedish subsidiary, which has enabled increased capacity, strengthened expertise, and an expanded Nordic network. These developments have helped Nurminen Logistics build a stronger business structure aimed at improving connections between European markets and providing customers with even smoother logistics solutions.
Rail link between Italy and Sweden becomes the highlight of the event
Nurminen Logistics’ new rail service connecting Italy and Sweden, launching in Week 9, quickly became the highlight of the evening — and for good reason! The new service covers the entire logistics chain from start to finish – from pick‑up and final delivery to terminal services and the necessary paperwork.
Benefits of the service were clearly identified by attendees: the rail route offers rapid three-day transit and weekly scheduled departures, enabling companies to plan their operations with confidence. Its flexible capacity and lower CO₂ emissions provide significant advantages in both cost efficiency and sustainability. Event participants saw these benefits as real competitive advantages for businesses in the Greater Stockholm and Greater Milan regions — and beyond.
