Since its establishment in 1949 Umo Capital Oy, previously known as Ulkomarkkinat Oy, has been run as a family office based in Helsinki, Finland. Originally, the company's main businesses concentrated on importing machinery and equipment for the local meat-processing as well as other food-related industries. Subsequently, the product range was broadened, targeting smaller retailers as well as supermarkets. An essential development for the company's success has been its ability to make strategic decisions at the right time. The company is renowned for its excellent customer care and service.
