The greatest responsibility in Finland
The biggest one carries the biggest responsibility! Jumbo is Finland’s largest shopping centre with 170 stores and services, thousands of employees and nearly 12 million visitors each year. For many Vantaa residents, Jumbo is the heart of the city, pumping life to a large area.
We want to match our size in terms of ecological and social sustainability. We have committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and created a Sustainability Programme 2022-2030. In short: We aim to be the most sustainable shopping centre in Finland, a fair workplace and the best neighbour in Vantaa. We want to create an economic impact locally and provide an equal, safe and more comfortable meeting place for the whole neighbourhood.
The sustainability of Jumbo shopping centre consists of hundreds of actions in different sizes and thousands of daily choices. That is why we support our stores in taking sustainability actions and provide our visitors with information and inspiration on how they can make more sustainable choices in their daily lives.
Jumbo’s Sustainability Review 2024
Jumbo’s Sustainability Review covers our sustainability targets in detail as well as what we have done in 2024 to reach the set targets. The Review also gives a brief overview of the sustainability acts we have planned for 2025.
Jumbo’s Sustainability Event
The sustainability campaign encourages customers to pause and think about their everyday choices, and to make more responsible and environmentally friendly decisions. It also highlights the actions taken by the shopping center and its stores to support a more sustainable future.
The first campaign was held at Jumbo in May 2024. After receiving very positive feedback, it has been organized every spring since. During the campaign, visitors can explore practical sustainable options, such as recycling and repair services offered by the stores. Environmentally friendly products—like reusable items and those made from recycled materials—are also featured. The campaign also shows how stores and customers can work together to reduce product and food waste. An important part of the campaign is a series of workshops where leftover or unwanted materials are reused. Customers can join these workshops for free.
