A water factory became the Brewery in 1920
The Workers' Union established a soft drink factory in Kemi, Lapland, in 1920. Heikki Tuomisto was a contractor, manager and brewmaster at the soft drink and brewery factory on Valtakatu, just across the road, and he lived there with his family. He had to close the brewery in 1930 due to the depression and moved to the Soviet Union.
