    Yeah, K-Markets are everywhere. It's a huge ass chain managed by Kesko.
    Fun fact, K-Markets used to have increasing numbers of K's in their names depending on the size of it, Citymarkets being the largest with four K's, but since the medium sized supermarkets ran by the name of KKK-SuperMarket it weren't the best look for the brand, especially when American tourists started to point those out haha
    After that Kesko phased that way of showcasing the shop sizes and now they all are just K-Markets, K-Supermarkets or K-Citymarkets.

      Yeah, other big chain is S Group. Back in the days when Kesko used KKK-SuperMarkets, S Group missed the opportunity to name their shops with S-letters. We really should have had the opportunity to choose if we do our groceries in KKK-shop or SS-shop.

    I was on a train to Helsinki. I saw so many places along the track, mostly K-Markets, Prismas, K-Citymarkets which I had seen on your videos and regocnised, ”hey, I’ve seen this place on All Over the Map!”.

    K-markets are staple in Finnish urban and rural landscape. They also feature quite a lot of autonomy to tailor their services to meet the needs and demands of their local communities, especially when talking about local suppliers such as local farms, orchards and livestock farms. Many also function as posts and/or bus stops in smaller and/or dying communities. their mothercompany Kesko also puts quite a lot of effort into building good quality food-and-delicacy service counters on bigger Citymarkets. Although they cannot compete in terms of prices, they and their beloved rival S-group form the largest grocery shop chains here in Finland

    M-market should not be in this game, it has nothing to do with K-market. M-market is much smaller brand than K-market, there are about 50 M-markets and over 800 K-markets in Finland.

    I have been to the K-Market in round 2 many many times. It used to be our go-to place to buy lunch when I was working as a tram stop maintenance person in Helsinki (basically emptying the garbage bins on tram stops).

    Helsinki: You really need to look for the Finnish name (Koskela in this case) in Finnish-majority municipalities because that's what Google Maps probably show.
    Mulch is used in Finland, of course. Several plantings by streets in Jyväskylä have plenty of mulch.
    Nummela is the main centre of Vihti.
    Info on the name "Koskela"/"Forsby":
    "Koskela" means basically 'place by the rapids', and it is a very common toponym in Finland, mostly used for houses/farms. 'Rapids' is "koski" in Finnish. Swedish "Forsby" is also a name of several places by rapids. "Fors" means 'rapids' and "by" means 'village'.
    In Helsinki (Swedish: Helsingfors), Forsby (Finnish: Koskela) was first named because it is by the rapids Vanhankaupunginkoski (Swedish: Gammelstadsforsen). Helsinki was originally founded by the rapids, and that is why the Swedish name is "Helsing_fors_", kinda like 'Helsinge rapids'. "Helsinge" is the old Swedish name of the parish, which is much older than Helsinki, it is "Helsingin pitäjä" in Finnish. The municipality of Helsinge was called "Helsingin maalaiskunta" in Finnish, until it was renamed "Vantaa" in 1972, and Vantaa became a town in 1974.
    Then for example "Forsby" is the Swedish name of the village of "Koskenkylä", which is in Loviisa formerly Pernaja. It is common for names to have a dissimilar form in the other language. Another example is the Swedish form "Brändö", which is "Palosaari" in Vaasa and "Kulosaari" in Helsinki. Both mean basically 'burned island' as does the Swedish name.

      Great informative post. I always figured mulch would be something the Americans invented that really has no purpose but to sell people on something. The place by the rapids - are there any whitewater rafting or kayaking spots in the region?

    • @gozamite
      @gozamite 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@alloverthemap23 Not really. Except maybe in springtime when there is a lot of water going through the rapids.

    • @aeschynanthus_sp
      @aeschynanthus_sp 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@alloverthemap23 As said, there are unlikely to be kayakers at Vanhankaupunginkoski as there is little water most of the year. The words "koski" and "fors" don't imply that the rapids would be large or there would be very much fall.

    K-Market, K-Supermarket and K-Citymarket are all managed by Kesko. They are all over. I think they even have one in the Helsinki Vantaa Airport.

    I played with your play along link first. The Helsinki one I was first like "ooh, Swedish, that narrows it down!" And then after finding a roundabout with tram tracks I quickly realized I knew exactly where it was as I lived just some kilometer from there for two years!

    I'm an American who's lived in Finland since 2010. I haven't traveled all that much outside my home province so it's always cool to see the places I've been pop up in these games.
    I live in a city you've expressed interest in visiting several times! If you have a business email or other way to contact you (I don't have Twitter anymore) I'd be happy to talk about what that transition has been like and give some recommendations for what to do.
