Kannus - the town of many opportunities in Central Ostrobothnia.

Kannus is located along good traffic routes. The Kokkola-Kajaani national highway, the Kannus-Viitasaari route, and the Ostrobothnia railway go through the town centre.

We appreciate entrepreneurship here in Kannus. We have many nationwide well-known companies, such as Pouttu, Kannustalo, and Eskopuu, and many smaller successful firms. The only kennels upper secondary school in Finland is connected to the Kannus Agriculture Academy.

For people who appreciate services, culture, and exercise, Kannus is an ideal place to live. You can practise several different kinds of sports at the Leisure-Centre in the beautiful pine terrain of Kitinkangas. The Centre of Museum and Culture on the hill of Mäkiraonmäki and Gallery Justus located in the basement floor of the Town Hall offer culture experiences for their visitors.
