This applies to every action: our joint work in internal teams, from customer inquiries to complaints to meeting deadlines. Our values are a promise to our customers, partners and colleagues that we must always keep. Each individual should ask themselves in every action: are we acting energetically? Do we think ahead to create the best solution? Are we trustworthy, i.e. reliable and honest? Those who can answer yes to these questions are living our values.

The special strengths of KUKKO as a company have been summarized in one sentence. Strengths that we have already proven in the past and that are important for customers today and in the future. This sentence is the performance promise that we as a company make to KUKKO customers and partners. We are measured by whether we keep this promise. Therefore, it is important that every employee works in his or her area of responsibility to keep this promise and make it tangible - whether in direct contact with our customers and business partners, in product development or internally by supporting others through the solution of our tasks and thus contributing to the result.
