About the Company
VEEN is a Finnish drink brand that started in December 2006. Its name comes from 'Veen Emonen'. This means 'Mother of the Water' and is a character in the old Finnish storybook called Kalevala.
VEEN Waters Finland Oy Ltd is a private company. Its main office is in Ylitornio, Finland. When the company first began, key people included Tomi Grönfors and Mikko Nikkilä.
In January 2012, a new family bought the brand. This family now runs the company and its plans. Today, the VEEN brand works as a group of three companies. They have two different water sources and two places where they bottle drinks. VEEN products are sold in 16 different countries.
VEEN Products
VEEN bottles spring water in Finnish Lapland. This water has very few minerals, about 17.22 mg/L. The water is naturally filtered through ice age soil. This happens at the Konisaajo natural spring area.
From this spring, VEEN bottles two products. These are VEEN Velvet, which is natural spring water. They also make VEEN Effervescent, which is gently sparkling spring water. These products come in glass bottles that can be recycled. They are often used with food because of their low mineral content.
VEEN also offers other types of water. VEEN Still and Classic are natural mineral waters from Bhutan. These also come in recyclable glass bottles. They are made for staying hydrated and feeling refreshed.
In late 2017, VEEN launched Nordic Mixers. This is a special range of four products. It includes Nordic Tonic Water, Nordic Soda Water, Nordic Ginger Ale, and Nordic Bitter Lemon. These are great for mixing with other drinks.
VEEN Ayurveda Water is a healthy drink with natural plant and fruit flavors. It is inspired by Ayurveda, an ancient health system. The Ayurveda Super Shot is a small 100 mL organic juice shot. It also has natural plant and fruit juices inspired by Ayurveda.
