Ajax Systems, the Ukrainian developer and manufacturer of professional security systems, has announced the opening of its first plant abroad — in Istanbul, Turkey.

The new 8300 square-meters plant will produce the entire lineup of Ajax devices, duplicating the current production in Ukraine. Ajax Systems has already started to form a local manufacturing team in Istanbul.

New plant in Istanbul

At the first stage, it is planned to hire at least 400 people. The new Istanbul plant is expected to produce at least 150,000 devices per month. The company was planning to launch new production facilities abroad, long before the war. It is the logical continuation of production scaling.

The opening of a new plant in Istanbul is a strategic step planned by the company and aimed at diversifying production facilities.

Turkey chosen as site of new plant on multiple factors

We strongly believe that the diversity of talents and cultures creates the best products and solutions"

They chose Turkey based on a combination of factors, including the availability of manufacturing professionals, infrastructure, the free economic zone conditions, the level of taxes, the quality of contractors, and proximity to the major markets. The new production will strengthen the Ajax product development and accelerate access to new markets.

Aleksandr Konotopskyi, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ajax Systems, said “We strongly believe that the diversity of talents and cultures creates the best products and solutions. And, we have always counted on local teams. Therefore, we are pleased to announce that today we are opening our first manufacturing vacancy in Turkey — General Manager, Manufacturing Plant Operations.

Expansion of R&D (Research & Development) team

Ajax Systems has completely resumed the existing manufacturing and product development in Ukraine. The company is actively hiring specialists for the plant and expanding its R&D (Research & Development) team. This production facility remains in Ukraine.

In addition, the company has its own logistics hub in Poland and develops its local teams in the strategic markets of Spain, Italy, the UK, Germany, France, UAE, South Africa, and other countries.
