Strategia

Nurminen Logistics’ strategy for 2025–2027 builds on our strong position as one of the most profitable players in our field. Our focus is on accelerating growth in international rail logistics, supported by market trends that favour low-emission transport solutions and transparent climate reporting. 

At the core of our strategy is growth driven by efficient and customer-oriented rail transport services between Scandinavia, Europe and Asia. We aim to strengthen our position in these markets by expanding our international service network and customer base, both organically and through acquisitions.
