Stoka

What Stoka does

Stoka Oy is a Finnish internal-logistics solutions provider that supplies and services warehouse racking, storage automation, industrial workstations, cranes, forklifts, and material handling equipment for B2B customers across Finland. Its core product portfolio centers on Kasten Tornado vertical storage lifts and Compactus mobile shelving, Treston industrial workbenches (with an online 3D design tool), Erikkila crane systems, Mitsubishi forklift trucks (EDiA, GRENDiA, TREXiA, AXiA, PREMiA, VELiA, SENSiA), and Rocla/Silverstone hand pallet trucks and trolleys, complemented by Gonva warehouse automation and SENSiA reach trucks. Stoka also offers second-hand/outlet equipment and a full lifecycle service stack covering planning, installation, maintenance, spare parts, warehouse safety inspection, furniture rental, recycling, and production-space consulting.

The company generates revenue primarily through hardware resale (catalog-priced items such as desks from €319, shelving from €186, hand trucks from €235, plus quote-based pricing for heavier automation projects) and professional services spanning planning, installation, and recurring maintenance. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultation-heavy, executed through four physical service points in Oulu (headquarters), Vaasa, Jyväskylä, and Kuopio, plus a Kokkola service point, with an e-commerce storefront and quote-request forms on stoka.fi. Customer segments are horizontal — manufacturing, warehousing, industrial work environments, and material handling operations — with named logos spanning motor vehicle parts retail (Ranuan Tarvikekeskus), building materials (Oy C.J. Hartman Ab), metal manufacturing (Koneistamo Alm), and public/heritage sector (Siida Sámi Museum and Nature Centre).

Stoka is a privately held, founder/management-owned Finnish limited company. Its recent corporate history is shaped by the October 2024 acquisition of Eritoimi Oy, which doubled its footprint from two to four locations and lifted professional headcount to 21; the January 2026 merger of Stoka Oy and Stoka KS Oy (the former Eritoimi); and the January 2026 appointment of Ilkka Ylilauri as CEO, with predecessor Kaj Katainen transitioning to a sales and customer-relationship role. The company is a member of the Intolog chain and operates as a regional partner for Kasten, Treston, Mitsubishi Forklifts, and Erikkila; it has no disclosed venture capital, private equity, or institutional investors.
