Company

A journey of nearly a century

1929

The company begins operations amid the global depression triggered by the New York stock market crash, and a major dockworkers' strike shaking Finland.

2006

The company redefines its business concept and changes its official name to Oy Ajoranta Investor AB.

2012

The business concept is crystallised and the company is renamed Oy AjoRanta Group Oy.

Today

AjoRanta Group acts as the umbrella under which AjoRanta Investor handles investment and financing services and AjoRanta Service handles charter and rental services.
