What is Minimossen?
Minimossen is the first recycling mall in Finland. We sell carefully selected recycled items. The recycling mall in Isolahti, Vaasa, was opened in 2019. Over the years, it has grown into a natural meeting and shopping place for sustainable consumption.

Minimossen entrepreneurs
Minimossen’s permanent product and service range is maintained by about 15 entrepreneurs within the circular and sustainable economy. The entrepreneurs at Minimossen work together with Stormossen to develop Minimossen’s operations. Minimossen has grown multiple times over the past few years, and both sales and the product range have multiplied since its inception in 2019.
As an entrepreneur at Minimossen, you receive donations in various product categories to enable reuse in different ways. All entrepreneurs have their own shop-in-shop, and the operations are maintained through the efforts of both the entrepreneurs and Stormossen. Some of the entrepreneurs run their Minimossen business full-time, while others do it as a hobby or side business.
We are always open to hearing new business ideas and perspectives that support our vision of circular and sustainable consumption. Contact us if you are interested in becoming one of us or learning more about our concept.
