Varikkokatu 2

Premises and features

Varikkokatu 2 is a versatile production and warehouse property constructed in several phases between the 1920s and the 1980s. This layered history is reflected in the variety of premises available today — from different ceiling heights to adaptable layouts suitable for production, storage, and retail activities.

The property is currently home to ten tenants, and the large, fenced yard area provides ample parking as well as rentable outdoor storage space. The building uses green electricity and green district heating supplied by Kuopion Energia, supporting responsible and sustainable operations.

Did you know? Varikkokatu 2 was originally built for Siikaniemen Saha Oy. Its industrial heritage is still visible in the practicality and robustness of the premises.
