Arctic Food Lab for companies
Join the Arctic Food Lab network and put your business at the heart of northern food culture!
The Arctic Food Lab brand offers your business visibility as part of the Oulu2026 culture programme. It strengthens the gastronomic appeal of the region and helps your business to stand out as a user of sustainable and local ingredients.
The Arctic Food Lab brand communicates the Arctic roots and quality of your products and services. It helps tourists and customers to recognise the locally produced food and unique taste experiences that come from the nature and expertise of our region. Joining the network opens doors to cooperation, joint campaigns and skills development. At the same time, we are building the future of our region’s food culture together.
A brand that speaks of localness and quality
The Arctic Food Lab brand communicates locality, quality and sustainability, which builds interest and trust.
In addition to the brand, you get a lot more. Your company will be featured on the Arctic Food Lab website and social media channels. You can use this visibility in your own channels. You will also have the opportunity to use the Arctic Food Lab brand in marketing, for example on product packaging, in social media and at events.
You will be part of an active network where you can share experiences and develop cooperation with other actors in the industry. You will receive a newsletter, information about events and opportunities. Arctic Food Lab also opens doors to international markets, especially as part of the Oulu2026 Capital of Culture programme.
We require that any product or dish using the Arctic Food Lab brand is made in the Oulu2026 region. The trademarked operator shares the Arctic Food Lab’s values: courage, fairness and responsibility.
