On 2 June 2026, the Finnish Defence Forces inaugurated a new logistics depot in Veitsiluoto, Kemi. The facility, housed in former Stora Enso pulp and paper mill storage halls, will store and maintain military materiel for Finnish and allied forces in northern Finland. Six permanent staff are employed. The depot supports the 3rd Logistics Regiment’s mission of building a logistics service network in the region, providing storage, maintenance, and aid for both domestic and NATO troops. The location strengthens Finland’s capacity to receive and support foreign units, meeting stricter material dispersal, procurement, and safety requirements arising from Finland’s NATO membership and evolving security environment. The depot also enhances readiness for training and emergency operations.
