Sales of plant-based protein meat substitutes have started to rise in K-food stores after several years of decline. Over the past year, growth has exceeded 5 per cent. This increase is driven not only by customers’ growing interest in plant-based proteins but also by the expansion of the range with new products.

K-Citymarkets are working systematically to minimise home and speciality goods waste. Methods to achieve this include prevention of waste, discount pricing, donations and dedicated outlet areas in some K-Citymarkets. One of the largest outlet areas is in the K-Citymarket in Laune, which is particularly popular among families with children in Lahti.

Kesko was one of the first companies to sign the new Energy Efficiency Agreement for the retail sector over the years 2026–2035. The cornerstones of Kesko’s energy efficiency improvement target of 16%, which is equivalent to 140 GWh, are the stores’ energy renovations and innovative energy solutions. Between 2021 and 2025, Kesko has achieved energy savings of around 89 GWh by upgrading the building services and refrigeration units of its stores across Finland. Consumption of district heating is also being reduced through new solutions. For example, waste heat from the atNorth data centre is now used to cover almost all the heating energy needed by the K-Supermarket Mankkaa in Espoo.
