Is the Viking brand in reference to something only the Brits would know?

No, I don't think so. I'm presuming that Scandinavian brands sell in the US ...

(That was a BIG hint, btw).

I can't think of anyone named Ikea or Nokia...

edit: Rikae? It sounds like Ikea and if you twist that crypticism it could result that way though I can't see how (I'm bad at cryptic ones even in Finnish).

Nope. None of those are correct.

However, Lommy is on the right track ...

The pronounced silence has driven me to provide this further hint.

Congrats, Durelin, and take it away ...
