Masku Oy is a Finnish family-owned furniture retailer founded in 1983, operating primarily through its Estonian subsidiary Masku Baltic OÜ. The company runs an omnichannel model combining a central Finnish logistics hub holding 100,000+ items with two physical retail showrooms in Tallinn and Tartu, plus an e-commerce platform at masku.ee delivering across Estonia in 3-8 days. Its catalog spans approximately 40,000 SKUs sourced from 300+ manufacturers, with core categories including living room furniture (sofas, armchairs, cabinets, tables), bedroom furniture (beds, mattresses, wardrobes), dining sets, home office, and outdoor/garden furniture, alongside interior decoration items such as rugs and lighting.

The business model is straightforward retail: one-time unit-priced sales across a broad price spectrum (sofas €995-€2,995, outdoor sets €503-€1,679), supplemented by installment financing through partners Liisi/Holm Bank, Inbank, and Esto, a Masku Klubi loyalty program, and a 5-day price-match guarantee. The primary customer segment is B2C consumers furnishing homes across living, bedroom, dining, office, and outdoor spaces, with a secondary B2B line for commercial furnishing projects served through dedicated business customer service. Strategic brand partnerships anchor the assortment, notably as claimed largest Bellus, Pohjanmaan, and Rowico reseller in Estonia, alongside premium Norwegian brand Stressless and newer additions Lalee and Vallila.

Revenue mechanics are retail margin-based with diversification across physical retail, direct-to-consumer e-commerce, custom-made furniture orders, and financing attach economics via partner banks.
