About us
We are building the Retail OS that makes it effortless for retailers to sell everywhere
















about us
Vesko Ltd. (Vesko Oy) is a Finnish startup founded in Joensuu in late 2024. Our mission is to help local retailers sell online from their store shelf and deliver a better shopping experience through online-to-offline commerce

Retail is still offline — but discovery starts online
87% of retail still happens offline, but 91% of shopping journeys start online—and there is no real online-to-offline e-commerce solution today
In-store shopping behavior has changed permanently.
91% of shoppers start their journey online, and 76% want to see product availability before visiting a store. Yet sales still happen across both online and physical locations
Tools that local retailers are using
Expensive tools that force local retailers to build a second business?
Traditional e-commerce tools are built for online-first vendors, not local retailers. They publish a catalog, but they do not make the real brick-and-mortar shelf inventory visible to the 91% who start online, nor do they reflect true in-store availability.
And the problem does not stop there: physical stores have high SKU counts, and building an online store that truly matches the offline store requires serious investment.
Based on our 2025 study, local retailers face up to €110k in upfront costs and around €196k in yearly operating costs to run online alongside the store.
solution
One platform. Everything a retailer needs to sell everywhere
While current tools force local retailers to build a separate online business, with little connection to the physical store beyond a copied catalog, Vesko solves this with a Retail OS.
“We believe retailers shouldn’t have to choose between online and offline. They should operate one business, not multiple disconnected ones.”

Our solution connects the physical store to an online storefront so shoppers can see what is actually available before they visit

Online and in-store sales run on the same inventory, with payments, logistics, and POS working together out of the box, so you avoid integration projects, duplicate work, and the cost of running two businesses
Our Values
Local Empowerment
Strong cities depend on strong local businesses. Vesko exists to give independent retailers the tools to compete, grow, and thrive — on their own terms
Fair Digital Commerce
Retailers should not have to sacrifice margins, data, or identity to be visible online. We build fair, transparent models that work long-term
Human-Centered Technology
Technology should simplify complexity, not create it. Vesko is designed around real retailers, real workflows, and real customers
Sustainable Urban Economies
Supporting local retail means reducing unnecessary logistics, encouraging conscious consumption, and keeping value within communities
Trust Through Transparency
From pricing models to data usage, we believe trust is built through clarity, honesty, and measurable reliability
We invite you to join us in shaping the future of retail
Step 1
After years of building, testing, and iterating with retailers, Vesko is nearing launch this spring starting with pilot deployments in Joensuu in February
Step 2
Next, we will enhance Vesko’s Retail OS with applied AI to make retail operations smarter, faster, and more efficient from listing and inventory to fulfilment and decision-making
