AKI KUUSILEHTO IS THE NEW CEO OF HALTI

Aki Kuusilehto has been appointed CEO of Halti starting from 10 August 2020. Kuusilehto (48) has extensive and versatile experience in the sporting goods industry. Kuusilehto joined Halti from Patrol Oy Ab, where he worked for more than 20 years leading the sales and marketing teams and served as CEO for the past 1.5 years.

“Halti has clearly strengthened its position in the domestic market over the past years. The brand is well known, it focuses on product development and customer needs, and its product range has become commercially successful. Outdoor activities are hugely popular at the moment, which gives us great opportunities to develop our business and further strengthen our position in Finland. For greater growth, we need to set our sights abroad. In the future, Halti wants to be an international Nordic premium brand. With professional staff, strong customer relationships, innovative products and strong Finnish ownership, we will build a successful future,” says Kuusilehto.

“I am very pleased that Aki joined us as our CEO. He has extensive and valuable experience in the field, and we are confident that Halti will continue to grow under his leadership,” says Robert Ingman, Halti’s Chairman of the Board.
