Junnikkala Oy is a family-owned company established in 1960 and one of the pioneers of the Finnish wood processing industry. Junnikkala Oy operates one of Finland’s largest and the most modern sawmills in the world.

In major industrial investments, legal advice is an integral part of successful execution of the project. Contracts, financing, construction arrangements and the responsibilities of the various parties must form a coherent framework that meets both the practical demands of the project and its long-term implications.

We have advised Junnikkala Oy on the project agreements and financing arrangements relating to the sawmill project developed in the Laanila industrial area in Oulu, as well as on a significant M&A transaction in which Stora Enso acquired the entire share capital of Junnikkala Oy in 2025.
