Elcoteq Tallinn held a housewarming party for its new factory in Estonia March 3, 2010. As a part of the general expansion plans of Elcoteq Tallinn, and due to the announcement of a new client, Inmarsat, Elcoteq decided to move to larger facilities with a total area of 4,200 square meters.
"Elcoteq is an example to other companies in Estonia. Elcoteq is doing exactly what companies should do--adjust to the changing economic environment," stated Estonian Prime Minister, Andrus Ansip in his speech. He also welcomed the fact that Elcoteq is concentrating on high-mix, low-volume production in Tallinn.
Chairman of the Board, Antti Piippo; Senior Vice President of Group Operations, Roger Taylor; and General Manager of Elcoteq's Tallinn plant, Jan Kotka hosted the event with more than 60 guests from Estonian government and parliament, Tallinn City Government and partner companies.
The fact that Elcoteq Tallinn, who recently sold the majority of its production in Tallinn to Ericsson, has managed to restructure its activities and to find new customers created huge media interest. The event received several mentions in Estonian press, including Estonian national television and radio.
