Best Sellers of 2021

Share on Facebook Share on Facebook

At the start of a new year, it has become a bit of a tradition for us to take a look back at the most popular and most buckaroos-generating products of the past year. Last year we faced not very few obstacles with product availability and logistics. We did, however, manage to stock our shelves, be it with regularly irregular intervals. But which products excited you the most in 2021 from a purely commercial perspective?

Here they are listed, the products that you bought most and that made us the most money.

Finland

Finns seem to cover themselves in Särmä (TST) clothing and gear from head to toe. Särmä Merino Wool hoodie has been a long-time best seller both in Finland and other countries and this has not changed. Last year Finns bought practical items to wear outdoors (and at home), and of course, also caffeinated chocolate. What's there not to love!

USA

In the US, the Merino Wool Hoodie boasts on the podium. But it seems that the Americans crave caffein-infused chocolate even more than us Finns – who knew! Whereas Finns put their money on undies and socks, Americans fill their baskets with tasty Finnish delicacies, such as Fish Cock and Crisp Rye Bread. Then they pick a decent Terävä knife to go with these and a Savotta backpack to carry them around in.

Other countries
