Kemira: Tikkurila to acquire a sales company in Slovakia
Until now, Finncolor Slovakia has acted as Tikkurila's importer for decorative paints and industrial coatings in Slovakia. Tikkurila has been exporting its products to the country since the mid 1990s. In 2007, Finncolor's operations in the Slovakian paint market had a revenue totalling approximately EUR 3 million.
This acquisition is aimed at strengthening Tikkurila's position in a strategic core area in Eastern Europe. Tikkurila Slovakia s.r.o. will have its own sales and marketing organisation, warehouse in Martin and shops in Bratislava, Martin and Presov.
