Campusravita has a long history: the company was founded in 1966. We have been involved in providing student services on the main campus of Tampere University of Applied Sciences for almost six decades. Restaurant operations have been our main activity for over thirty years, but the company took its first steps in the form of a bookstore, and our bookstore will operate on campus until 2024. The company is owned by the student union of Tampere University of Applied Sciences together with Tampere University of Applied Sciences. We have been actively involved in developing and supporting club activities, events, theses, RestoLab and various funds. The strong presence of the owners and the activeness of student activities on campus create an operating environment where we work with joy and pride for a good goal every day.
