I asked Eiva to lead Liviko UAB in the firm conviction that her leadership will also have the tangible support of the staff," explained AS Liviko's CEO Janek Kalvi.

We value transparency of the organisation, ambitious development, modernity, and dedication to customers.

The work will continue thanks to our professional and dedicated people,"added Kalvi.
