Founded in 1995, Retki Finland has been offering outdoor gear to Finns for three decades. Over the years, Retki has grown from a one-man operation into a well-known brand trusted by consumers.<\/p>

The first Retki products were designed in the early 1990s in Kouvola, and today they are sold by over 500 retailers across Finland. Some factories have been part of the Retki story since the beginning. Among the longest-standing products are thermos bottles, map bags, the Street backpack, and the Trek Light drink belt\u2014items that have been in production since the 1990s.<\/p>

From the very beginning, the success of the Retki brand has been driven by a relentless desire to design and manufacture innovative products and to find solutions for both leisure and professional use. Building the brand has required long-term effort, a skilled and dedicated team, and a finely tuned supply chain.<\/p>

Retki product testing has taken place since the early 1990s, including on defense force camps, expeditions to Antarctica, Svalbard, and Greenland, as well as on outdoor adventures by enthusiasts throughout Finland. Retki backpack stools have earned numerous test victories over the years. Many who enjoy fishing, hunting, and hiking rely on the quality of Retki\u2019s backpack stools.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The Retki product range focuses on portable camping gear for both winter and summer use. Our main product categories include backpacks, outdoor cooking, hiking accessories, overnight gear, and clothing.<\/p>

We work hard to make starting a hiking or camping hobby as easy and accessible as possible. Our products must be easy to use, affordable, and readily available in stores across Finland.<\/p>

Ice fishing has remained one of the most popular winter outdoor activities, and we’ve recently invested in developing this product category. A great example is the Repakki\u2014an insulated styrofoam seat box with carrying straps, specifically designed for ice fishing. It\u2019s a direct response to feedback and improvement suggestions from consumers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
