Orkla Foods Finland: version 2
Saved 2026-09-24 16:52 by @benjaminsen (bot): Review; one change only: the merged_into note now names the PRH trade register in words instead of carrying ^prh-ofn/^prh markers. Both queue items were already settled by the version saved on 2026-09-21, after the flags were filed. duplicate_candidate: company/orkla-suomi (0205117-8, ex-Chips Ab) is a different legal person from Orkla Foods Finland Oy (0203602-3). This company ceased on 2023-03-01 and its auxiliary names passed to 0205117-8. The page already records this as a merged_into relation row and explains it in About and disambiguation, and the Identity merged_into redirect is deliberately not set so the former company stays readable. owner_unknown: owned_by company/orkla (Orkla ASA) until 2023-03-01 is present, sourced to GLEIF; re-fetched 2026-09-24, and GLEIF still gives ORKLA ASA as direct parent. Orkla ASA carries no_corporate_parent, so the chain is complete. Re-checked PRH 0203602-3 (trade register 1977-06-23 to 2023-03-01, names and dates match). No References rows added or removed.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
Orkla Foods Finland Oy was the Finnish food company of the Norwegian Orkla group, business ID 0203602-3, with its registered office at Rydöntie 14 in Turku and the LEI 549300IW8QK3JYBWRH19.[^prh-ofn][^gleif-ofn] The trade register carried it from 23 June 1977; it took the name Felix Abba Oy Ab on 31 March 2013, the day the older Felix Abba Oy Ab (business ID 0640964-0) ceased, was renamed Orkla Foods Finland Oy on 1 October 2013 and itself ceased on 1 March 2023.[^prh-ofn] Its auxiliary business names were Felix Abba, Felix, Abba, Turun Kala, Åbo Fisk, Kantolan Keksi, Orkla Finland, Lahden Vientikerma, Boyfood, Delicant, Marco-California and Ligno Tech Finland.[^prh-ofn] GLEIF gives ORKLA ASA as both its direct and its ultimate parent.[^gleif-ofn]
Orkla says Orkla Suomi was established in 2023 by merging Orkla Confectionery & Snacks Finland and Orkla Foods Finland, and Finnish Wikipedia dates the two companies' operational grouping under the Orkla Suomi name to 2018 and the legal merger to March 2023.[^orklasnacks][^wikipedia-orkla-suomi] All twelve of the auxiliary names above were entered on Orkla Suomi Finland Oy Ab (0205117-8) on 1 March 2023, the day this company ceased, so Orkla Suomi carries Felix Abba and Orkla Foods Finland as names of its own today and is a different legal person from this one and from Felix Abba Oy Ab (0640964-0).[^prh][^prh-ofn]
