Finland-based restaurant services company Restamax has proposed to change the company name to NoHo Partners.
The name, which comes from Nordic Hospitality Partners, is expected to better communicate the recent changes in Restamax’s business operations and its strengths, as well as its future goals and opportunities.
Laine Capital, PIMU Capital and Mika Niemi, the shareholders holding around 55.6% of all votes in the group, have supported the board’s decision.
Following final approval, the company will begin operating the business under the new name with immediate effect.
Restamax group CEO Aku Vikström said: “Our expansion to the international market and integration with Royal Ravintolat have served as engines for growth for our future. Our new name, NoHo Partners, indicates the core of our operations.
“‘Nordic’ refers to our future growth market as well as to Nordic quality, which is appreciated and attractive worldwide. ‘Hospitality’ reflects our desire to expand our operations beyond [a] conventional restaurant business, for example to large events and new digital sales channels.
