History

The era of Tapani Harvia (1950-1989)

In 1950, Tapani Harvia founded [5] the Art Workshop Harvia (named Taidetakomo Harvia) in Jyväskylä, located on the ground floor of his private residence. The company manufactured decorative items, [6] including hearth doors. [7]

Tapani Harvia made the first Harvia woodburning stove for his own use in 1950. [7] The first woodburning stove for sale was completed in the mid-1950s. [7] By the end of the decade sauna heaters had become Harvia's main product with about 500 sold annually. [8] In 1958 the company was renamed Takomo T Harvia Ky and in 1961 it was renamed Harvia Ky.

In the early 1960s, the production of continuously heated heaters began. [7] By the decade's end, Harvia manufactured about a thousand heaters a year. [7]

Harvia moved from Jyväskylä to Muurame in 1972 to its own industrial hall. Harvia's adult kids joined the company in the mid-1970s. [6] Risto Harvia started as CEO in 1977. [9]

Harvia Ky changed from being a limited liability company to Harvia Oy in 1980. [6] Tapani Harvia retired and served as chairman of the board. [6] In addition to wood-burning stoves, Harvia began manufacturing electric stoves in the early 1980s. In the end of the decade the company manufactured approximately 20,000 wood-fired and 5,000 electric heaters per year. [8]

International growth (1990-2013)

Growth continued in the 1990s, when the company started exporting to Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Russia and the United States. [7]

At the turn of the millennium, Harvia produced around 100 000 heaters a year, half of which were exported. The company's subsidiary made ready-made heaters for export. The company had a turnover of 135 million markkas and 120 employees. [10]

In 2005, Harvia established a factory in China. [7]

In 2011, the company had a turnover of 65 million euros. [11]

In 2013, Harvia had around 300 employees, with 200 based in Muurame and the rest in China and Hong Kong. Exports accounted for 60 percent of turnover. [12] Risto Harvia retired at the end of the year but continued to serve on the company's board. [13]

Owned by CapMan (2014-2017)

In spring 2014, the Harvia siblings sold 80 percentage of their family business to the investment fund CapMan. Pertti Harvia continued as CEO, while the other three siblings retired. [6] They justified the transaction on the grounds of Finnish tax: the tax on the generational transfer would have been too expensive for them. [6] Both Harvia and CapMan aimed to list Harvia on the stock exchange in a few years. [14]

For the local market in Russia, a wood-burning stove factory was established in 2015. [15]

Pertti Harvia retired and his successor Tapio Pajuharju took over in June 2016. Pajuharju, who had been CEO of Hartwall, had been on Harvia's board since 2014. [16] The company produced around 200 000 heaters a year, with hundreds of different models. [9] Spa Moduls, a company bought from Estonia, produced steam rooms, known as Turkish saunas. [9] In November, Sentiotec, a company producing products such as sauna rooms, infrared and steam saunas, digital control centres, sauna accessories and electric heaters, was acquired from Austria. The company's product development and production were located in Austria and Romania. [17]

In 2017, the company had 340 employees and a turnover of EUR 60.1 million, with factories in Muurame, China, Romania and Estonia. [18]

As a listed company (2018-)

Harvia Corporation was listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange in March 2018. [19] Sentiotec's heater production was transferred from Serbia to Muurame. [4] In the summer, Harvia had 385 employees, about half of them in Muurame. [20] In December, Harvia acquired the US sauna manufacturer Almost Heaven Saunas, which had been a Harvia customer for five years. The company had a total of 40 employees at its sales office in Holland, Michigan, and its manufacturing plant in Renick, West Virginia. [21]

In November 2019, CapMan sold its remaining shares to Onvest Oy. [22]

In April 2020, Harvia acquired around 80 per cent of EOS Group, a manufacturer of sauna and spa products. The company, which employed 190 people, produced products such as control centres, steam generators and infrared equipment, as well as heaters. The company was active in both Germany and Russia. [23] The demand for Harvia's products surged during the COVID-19 era. [24]

In May 2021, Harvia acquired Kirami, a manufacturer of hot tub heaters, [25] and in August, Sauna-Eurox, a sauna stone company. [26] Between March 2020 and August 2021, Harvia's share price increased by as much as 580 percentage. The company's turnover was 170 million euros. [27] The expansion of the heater factory in Muurame was completed. [28]

In spring 2022, Harvia suspended its operations in Russia after the invasion of Ukraine. Russia had accounted for 6.4% of turnover in the previous year, with 27 employees but no production facilities. [29] In the summer, Harvia bought the remaining shares in Germany's EOS. [30] Harvia withdrew from the Russian market. [27] and in November it was agreed to sell EOS Russia to its CEO. [31]

The sale of EOS Russia to its CEO was completed in March 2023. [31]

In June 2023, Matias Järnefelt became the company's new CEO. [27] In September, Harvia acquired Phoenix El-Mec srl from Italy, which had long manufactured electromechanical timers for Harvia’s heaters. [32] By this time, North America accounted for 29% of Harvia's turnover. [28]

Harvia's registered share capital was EUR 80,000 and the company had issued 18,549,879 fully paid shares (22 March 2018). [3] Harvia has one share series, and each share entitles the holder to one vote at the company's General Meeting of shareholders. [3] There are no voting restrictions attached to the shares. [3] The shares have no nominal value. The company's shares belong to a book-entry system. At the moment the company does not hold any of its own shares. [3]
