Pirkka (brand)

Pirkka is a private label brand used by grocery stores owned by the Finnish Kesko chain.

The first Pirkka brand products were basic daily household products, such as baking margarine, crisp rye bread, pea soup, washing powder, diapers and shampoo.

In 1996 ecological products were launched into the Pirkka series, with the "Luomu" ladybug as its symbol.
