Why They Chose Karnell
Selling a company is often one of the biggest decisions in an entrepreneur’s life. For many, it’s not just about the price – it’s about the future of their customers, employees, and the business they have carefully built.
Here, some of the entrepreneurs and owners we have worked with share why they chose to sell to Karnell. What considerations did they have? How did they feel about the process? And what proved to be the decisive factor in choosing a new owner?
Whether you’re considering a full or partial sale of your company, we hope their stories can offer insight into how an ownership transition can be carried out with respect, long-term perspective, and a shared belief in the future.


”In Karnell, we get a good strategic and financial partner to strengthen our market position”
– Mikko Autio, CEO at KL Mechanics
