Information:Siwa was a Finnish convenience store chain that operated between 1981 and 2017. After the purchase of Kesko, Suomen Lähikauppa's Siwa name disappeared from the stores completely, together with the Valintatalo name, starting in May 2016 and ending in April 2017. The stores were either changed to K-Markets, closed or sold to competitors. In Siwa's last decade, the chain included more than 500 stores.
