Entry to the East

Finland offers a central location in the expanding markets of Northern Europe, which is home to 80 million consumers.

Finland’s long experience of trade in Northern Europe, combined with its historical and cultural ties to neighboring countries, offers valuable insight and knowledge into the region. Finland is the ideal business gateway also to Russia. Most of the transit trade from the EU to Russia already passes through Finland. The countries share the same rail gauge, so rail cars do not require modification or reloading when they cross the border.

Finland boasts functional infrastructure and modern logistics and communications networks. English is the common language of Finland’s highly international business community. Over 90% of Finns under thirty speak English, while Swedish is Finland’s second official language in addition to Finnish. Many Finns also speak Russian.
