KH Group Plc announced today it has appointed Tuomas Myllynen as chief executive of KH-Koneet, with the leadership change set to take effect by August 1, 2026.
Myllynen will succeed long-standing CEO and co-founder Teppo Sakari, who informed the board last summer of his intention to step down during 2026 and transition into a strategic advisor role.
Myllynen joins from Cramo Finland, where he serves as managing director, and brings extensive executive experience from the equipment rental sector.
KH-Koneet is one of the leading suppliers of construction and earth-moving machinery in the Nordic region, representing brands including Kobelco, Kramer, Wacker Neuson, Yanmar, Ljungby Maskin, and Pronar.
“It is a great honour to become part of the company's story and to work alongside the finest professionals in the industry,” Myllynen said, outlining his ambition to strengthen KH-Koneet’s position as a reliable partner for customers across Finland and the Nordics.
