Kesko offsetting the environmental impacts of constructing Onnela logistics centre
From the outset, environmental and nature values have been considered in the construction of the Onnela logistics centre, which was completed in autumn 2025. An environmental survey was conducted on the project site before construction began. Now, the City of Hyvinkää and Kesko have signed an agreement on a plan to voluntarily compensate for ecosystem degradation caused by the construction and to generate new nature values in the Härkävehmaansuo area.

Methods to achieve this include prevention of waste, discount pricing, donations and dedicated outlet areas in some K-Citymarkets.

New Energy Efficiency Agreement: Kesko aims to improve energy efficiency by 16% by 2035
Kesko was one of the first companies to sign the new Energy Efficiency Agreement for the retail sector over the years 2026–2035. The cornerstones of Kesko’s energy efficiency improvement target of 16%, which is equivalent to 140 GWh, are the stores’ energy renovations and innovative energy solutions. Between 2021 and 2025, Kesko has achieved energy savings of around 89 GWh by upgrading the building services and refrigeration units of its stores across Finland. Consumption of district heating is also being reduced through new solutions. For example, waste heat from the atNorth data centre is now used to cover almost all the heating energy needed by the K-Supermarket Mankkaa in Espoo.
