In Ucon Oy’s application, Pello as a fishing capital and the development of winter tourism were especially taken into account. Entrepreneur Urho Haho would invest in new buildings and the pursuit of international tourists.
The management group of Pello municipality ended up presenting Ucon Oy as the operator of the Nivanpää camping site. The selection of the operator will next be processed by the Pello municipal board on March 14.
– I see the development of year-round tourism as very important. The Nivanpää campsite has previously operated only in the summer, so now the plan is to expand it to winter tourism as well. In the summer, the destination will still remain a fishing destination. Investing in new buildings and pursuing international tourists are also in the sights.
At the moment, the buildings and infrastructure of the campsite need renovation, which Haho is also aware of.
Olli Kuusisto is being proposed as a replacement, whose application was at a good level based on the overall assessment and partially satisfactory, according to the agenda of the Pello municipal board meeting.
The municipality of Pello received three applications in the competition for the Nivanpää campsite.
