OUR STORY
Barona was established in Helsinki, Finland in 1999. The story began from an idea two students had that summer at a construction site.In those days the construction industry was booming and there was a high demand for qualified workers. This gave Markus Oksa and Mikko Leppänen the idea to use their extensive network of skilled workers to help businesses looking for qualified employees. Thus, Barona was born.
The first employee of the new company was personally escorted by bus to their work site by Markus Oksa. During those initial years, the company set up offices in student housing and in a garage. The company’s first significant investment was a fax machine, back then the height of telecommunications technology.We have come far since those early days. Today we serve our clients in eleven different business sectors and our services cover a wide range of needs from recruitment to outsourcing and warehousing. We see growing opportunities and increasingly international solutions when we think about how the next chapter of our journey will be written.
We are proud of our Finnish roots and will continue to draw from them, while taking our solutions to a wider market.
