Wetteri expands its cooperation with Helkama-Auto Oy: new Škoda dealership in Joensuu

Wetteri expands its partnership with the importer of Škoda, Helkama-Auto, by starting Škoda sales at its Joensuu location. Škoda operations will begin in Joensuu during the end of 2025, offering Škoda sales, maintenance, and spare parts services.

"It is wonderful to begin serving Škoda customers in the North Karelia, which is an important market area for us. We have a long  history together with Škoda: the brand has been part of Wetteri's selection for 10 years already. In recent years, Škoda has consistently been at the top of Finland's new registration statistics, which shows the brand's established popularity. Especially Škoda's attractive electric models, such as the new Elroq and the renewed Enyaq, are capturing our customers' interest now. We are eagerly looking forward to the start of sales and warmly welcome local Škoda customers to Wetteri," says Wetteri's CEO Pietu Parikka.

"The North Karelia region is an important place for Škoda, so it is great to deepen our broad cooperation with Wetteri here as well. We want to serve new customers and cherish our long-term customer relationships with a comprehensive range of services for all drivers. Our product selection offers suitable options for both individual drivers and companies to meet diverse mobility needs," says Helkama-Auto Oy's CEO Maija Koskela.

In the future, Wetteri's full-service Škoda representation can be found in seven locations: Oulu, Ylivieska, Kemi, Rovaniemi, Mikkeli, Savonlinna, and Joensuu.
