    We are thrilled to share that our CEO, Katre Kõvask, has been awarded the Industry Leader of the Year title at the Industry Conference today! Katre Kõvask: "This award is particularly significant because it was given to a food industry company producing dairy alternatives—a company built entirely from scratch, focused on exports, and committed to sustainability and the circular economy. It’s a bold and forward-looking investment that aligns with modern economic model, which is focusing on sustainability, and I hope it serves as one of many examples shaping the future of Estonian industry today and tomorrow." We couldn't be prouder to see YOOK and our values celebrated on such a remarkable platform. Thank you Katre, our entire team, and everyone who supports us on this journey to create the world’s best oat drinks and shape a brighter, more sustainable future! Let’s continue inspiring the industry and beyond! 💪

    Today is a truly wonderful day because at the Industry Conference held today, I was awarded the Industry Leader of the Year title as a result of both the jury's decision and the public vote! This is a tremendous compliment and recognition for YOOK, our team, supporters, investors, and everyone who has had our back. My heartfelt and sincere thanks to all of you—without you, there would be no YOOK, no title, and the world would be missing the best oat drink it could ever have. This award is particularly significant because it was given to a food industry company producing dairy alternatives—a company built entirely from scratch, focused on exports, and committed to sustainability and the circular economy. It’s a bold and forward-looking investment that aligns with modern economic model, which is focusing on sustainability, and I hope it serves as one of many examples shaping the future of Estonian industry today and tomorrow. Today, I am genuinely proud and overjoyed that we have proven innovation, courage, and hard work can yield incredible results. I sincerely hope that YOOK serves as an inspiration for all current and future industrial leaders. Industry is the cornerstone and growth engine of Estonia’s economy, and together we can undoubtedly make “Made in Estonia” one of the world’s most prestigious marks of quality! Thank you to Äripäev, Tööstusuudised.ee, EIS, ABB, Coop Pank AS, all co-workers, investors, fans, friends and family! 😊 #yook #oatdrinks #sustainability #circulareconomy #industryleaderoftheyear

    Scaling up YOOK

    Last week, YOOK had the pleasure of exploring the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and uncovering its treasure trove of opportunities. Slowly but surely, the market's unique habits and vast potential came into focus. Here are some of the key takeaways from our whirlwind week: 📢 KSA is evolving at lightning speed, offering a goldmine of opportunities—but also some serious challenges. The competition on those supermarket shelves? It’s next-level fierce. 🥇 The winning formula? The right partner, a well-thought-out strategy, a smart investment policy, and—above all—sheer persistence. Trust me, without these, you're toast. ⚡Even though we only had one week on the ground, it was one of the most eye-opening trade missions I’ve ever been part of. With the support of fantastic partners, we were able to fast-track our learning and dodge some common missteps as we prepare for the next phase. ⛑ So, what’s next? Buckle up for some serious hard work, tough competition, and intense negotiations. But you know what? I absolutely love it! Huge thanks to Trade with Estonia, Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, LEVER BRIDGE COMPANY and BEYOND BORDERS BRAND MANAGEMENT MARKETING for a truly professional and enlightening experience. Special shoutouts to: Anneli Arm—thank you for having my back in those tricky meetings. Your professionalism was a rock, and it was great knowing you were there for YOOK every step of the way. Merit Fimberg-Espuch—thank you for managing the samples and organizing the mission while keeping the foodies happy 😊 Shehzad Ahmad, Nabeel Faruqui, and Matin Sahibole—your networking skills are next-level, but even better, you really took the time to dive into the brand and the market to offer the best advice. That’s a rare gift! Now, back to the grind! #yook #oatdrink #ksa #tradeestonia #doingwhatilove

    Innovative industry needs innovative young leaders! YOOK CEO Katre Kõvask: "I truly believe that education preparing for the industrial sector should start from an early age, and we need more positive role models who can make this sector attractive. An excellent example of popularizing science is the TV-show “Rakett 69” which demonstraes how science can be cool and engaging. Another issue is the outdated perception of the industrial sector, where factories are seen as dark and the work as routine-based. In reality, modern factories are advanced, automated, and digitalized, and they need to be managed by bright, smart, and young minds! The industry needs programmers, engineers, automation specialists, electrical experts, and more. I see this as a topic that industry leaders should discuss more, showcasing success stories, demonstrating how one can go far in this sector, earn competitive salaries, and create change!" https://lnkd.in/dWmPbJBH
