Finnish meat producer Pouttu joins Maag Food
16. January 2026In mid-January, one of Finland’s largest meat producers, Pouttu, moved under the Maag Food umbrella. Previously, Pouttu was part of Maag Group. This means that Maag Group has now consolidated all of its meat and dairy businesses under Maag Food OÜ.
Maag Food is Estonia’s largest food industry company and a leading food producer in the Baltics, bringing together well-known meat and dairy businesses with long histories and owning the entire supply chain – from feed production to finished products. In Estonia, Maag Food is the largest food industry company and, through its subsidiary Maag Agro, also the country’s largest agricultural enterprise.
According to Maag Food CEO Silver Kaur, bringing the meat and dairy companies under a single management structure is part of the group’s long-term strategy. The internal change will also help create new synergies between the different industries, support growth, and make processes and cooperation more efficient. “Pouttu is Finland’s fourth-largest meat producer and one of the largest employers in its region. With Pouttu moving under Maag Food, Finland (similarly to the Baltics) will become one of our home markets, and Pouttu, in turn, will become our centre of know-how in Finland. This change will not affect Maag Food’s day-to-day operations or employees, but for some of our managers it will bring additional sparring partners and team members in Finland.”
Maag Food is Estonia’s largest food industry company and a leading food producer in the Baltics. The company’s home markets are Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Finland. Maag Food employs around 2,300 people across the region. The company’s well-known and popular brands include Rakvere, Tallegg, Tere, Farmi and Deary (in Estonia), Rīgas Miesnieks (in Latvia), Klaipedos Maistas (in Lithuania) and Pouttu (in Finland). Maag Food is part of Maag Group, a food industry group consolidating food manufacturers and fully owned by Estonian capital, founded in 1996.
