Tecom announces plan to build new facility.
In the past three years Tecom has grown so much that its current facilities are no longer able to meet our needs. In March 2008, construction will begin of a new 13,000 square meter facility which should be done by the end of 2008. 11,000 square meters will be used for production, with 2,000 square meters to be used for office space. The building will be built on a 36,000 square meter plot of land which will allow room for future expansion.
The new facility will be located in the industrial city of Manisa, Turkey. Manisa is very close to the large port city of Izmir. Tecom is undecided what will become of their current facility in Buyukcekmece outside of Istanbul. Tecom will likely open a sales office in Istanbul and may or may not keep part of it's production in Istanbul.
