The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Hurtta began in Finland in 1983. They make dog gear and protection equipment. The brand built its reputation on dog coats engineered for Nordic winters. Their reflective harnesses became standard in Scandinavia and spread across Europe. Today Hurtta operates globally, visible in pet product rankings at number twenty-nine across thousands of tracked brands. The company remains known for functional design in harsh climates. Durability and visibility drive their work. Finland still anchors their operations and philosophy. A Finnish dog, working in snow, wears Hurtta. That is the measure of their success.
