The original Muurikka story

It all started in Finland, with the now classic griddle pan. A couple of friends had the idea of splitting a water kettle to make a large griddle pan for pancakes that was convenient enough to take on outings. They soon garnered a lot of interest from their friends and acquaintances, and after having sold their griddle pans to local petrol stations in Finland, Reijo Sistonen developed the idea further. In 1976, Muurikka was founded. The name Muurikka was coined with the griddle pan and soon became a well-known term in Finland. Since then, hundreds of thousands of griddle pans have been sold, the product range has grown, and the name Muurikka has become synonymous with griddle pans, even outside Finland. At campfires and garden parties, Muurikka’s products naturally complement mealtimes.
