Fifty years of Finnish design in Northern Ontario
Finnport was founded in Thunder Bay in 1975 by Tarmo, who ran it for 22 years. Mona and Diana then carried it forward for another 27 years. We became the new owners in 2024 — the photo here was taken at Finnport's 50th anniversary, with everyone who has helped shape it over the decades. It's a store with real roots, and we're honoured to be part of that story.
Beyond the shop, JengoLife works to build lives in rural Tanzania through girls' education and community development, and Caring Hands Uganda empowers women out of poverty through meaningful work. These are causes that matter deeply, and being involved in them is a privilege.
