Kesko's website service redesigned
KESKO CORPORATION PRESS RELEASE 20.04.2010 AT 11.00
Kesko's web pages at www.kesko.fi have been redesigned. The layout has been simplified and several new functionalities have been added, such as the possibility to subscribe to releases and news by RSS, to distribute information to social media networks and a more efficient search function.
In addition to the kesko.fi pages, the new search functionality enables users to search also other K-Group pages. This makes it easier, for example, to find the addresses and opening hours of the K-Group stores, because the information is updated on the web pages of the K-Group store chains.
Information on Kesko's operations and objectives are actively produced for the kesko.fi pages. In addition to topical news, the pages provide plenty of information on the company's corporate responsibility work and on Kesko as an investment. Kesko.fi also includes the K-Group job openings and other information on Kesko as an employer. The service is primarily used by investors, job seekers and media representatives. The site is maintained in Finnish and English.
The K-Group's consumer customers are primarily served by the store chains' websites and at www.plussa.com and www.pirkka.fi. Kesko's largest online store is the NetAnttila online department store (www.netanttila.com). NetAnttila also operates in Estonia (www.anttila.ee) and Latvia (www.anttila.lv).
Other K-Group online stores include Konebox (www.konebox.fi) specialising in home technology, Budget Sport (www.budgetsport.fi) in sports goods, Kodin Ykkönen (www.kodin1.com) concentrating on home and interior decoration products, and CM-store (www.cm-store.fi) concentrating on music products.
