“Everything about the trip was amazing.”
We are very proud of our factory in Suolahti and love showing customers around when we can. During January and March, we were thrilled to be able to take several customer groups from the UK over to the factory. They were given a unique glimpse into the world-class craftsmanship and innovation behind our brand and got to enjoy a few Finnish experiences along the way! In the words of one customer “Everything about the trip was amazing.” Another said, “It was the best factory trip I’ve ever been on.”

The trips would not have been possible without the support of event agency Event Tonic.
“Working alongside Sarah and the team at Valtra UK to organise their customer trips to the Factory in Finland has been such a great experience,” said Laura Cook, Director at Event Tonic.
“The whole team at Valtra are so knowledgeable and passionate about the brand and without a doubt this was one of the reasons the trip was such a success. It was a fantastic opportunity to give customers an insight into the manufacturing process and allow Valtra to showcase the commitment and efficiency of producing a quality product.”
Also involved in the trips was photographer Tom Wragg from Helium media who documented the trips and customer reactions on behalf of Valtra. He was able to complete a 12-month long video project with customers Mark and Mick from Windy Ridge, a large Lincolnshire-based salad and vegetable producer.
