Kesko wanted to streamline its premises and became a customer of Turun Teknologiakiinteistöt in InfraCity.
– In our previous office, we had individual rooms, which is a bit inefficient today. Now we have an ”open desk”, and everyone can choose the workstation they want. By moving from individual rooms to a multi-space environment, we also achieved cost savings, says Kesko's Regional Director Janne Virtanen.
The new office is located in InfraCity, which was completed in 2023 on Teollisuuskatu. The heart of the nearly 400-square-metre space is a bright work café, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering views far over Helsinginkatu.
”It’s a good place to work, and nothing is distracting.”
– This brightness will certainly brighten up our working days in the darkness of November. In winter, it's also nice that the lunch restaurant is under the same roof on the building's ground floor.
In InfraCity, special attention has been paid to sound management, and the sound environment in the Kesko office is also very calm.
– It’s a good place to work and nothing is distracting, but it still feels quite homey. Almost everyone has said it’s great that we moved to new premises, concludes Virtanen.
