Huhtamaki
Huhtamaki develops packaging solutions for establishments of all sizes.
Huhtamaki began as a family-owned candy factory and today is firmly established as the world's leading packaging manufacturer. The company was founded in 1920 when the village baker's son, Heikki Huhtamaki, opened a small candy factory in the Finnish town of Kokkola. In the 1930s, the company absorbed several bakeries, significantly expanding its range, and in 1960 acquired a factory that produced meat and fish semi-finished products. The company developed packaging for its products. Since the 1990s, the production of packaging has become a priority for the company and has allowed it to reach the global level.
Today Huhtamaki is present on six continents. The company has over 80 production sites and is represented in more than 30 countries worldwide. Since 1993 Huhtamaki has been developing its business in Russia. In the city of Ivanteevka, Moscow Region, there is a plant and a warehouse complex called "Khuhtamaki S.N.G.", which produces paper and plastic cups, containers, lids, bags, and wrappers, as well as food packaging and packaging for eggs.
In 2015, the company opened a second Russian plant in the Alabuga Special Economic Zone in the Republic of Tatarstan. Huhtamaki Russia has the largest factory for producing disposable tableware in Russia and the CIS. Its products are in demand among Russian customers and are supplied to foreign markets.
