This year, Ponsse celebra­tes its 55th year of ope­ra­tion with the theme of Wor­king toget­her at log­ging sites across the World. While the load-car­rying forest trac­tor has chan­ged its shape over the years and deve­lop­ment has con­ti­nued, the story of the company’s name and Ponsse the Dog that wan­de­red around the vil­lage of Vie­remä still lives on.  To celebrate the anni­ver­sary, we are now publis­hing a photo of Ponsse the Dog for the first time.
