He also emphasizes the importance of wide-ranging professional skills.
– The company has always been profitable, even though many kínds of economic cycles have taken place during the 30 years. We have always strived to build a versatile competence for the team. Apart from retail sector, we are actively serving many industries and working as a close partner to construction companies, Saari says.
QMG and Rauno Saari Oy were already familiar from joint projects.
– We have known QMG as a very professional and well-organized company. Joining the group brings us stronger resources for business development. For us, it is also important to be able to continue with our own name and operating model, because we believe in it, says Mikko Saari.
