FTG Corporation Announces A New Aerospace Facility In Hyderabad, India

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) TORONTO, Feb. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Firan technology Group Corporation (TSX: FTG) (OTCQX: FTGFF) (“FTG”) today announced the establishment of a new aerospace operation in Hyderabad, India, set to start production by the end of 2025. This new plant will support FTG's strategic growth and expand its presence in the Indian market. The facility will focus on cockpit products ranging from backlit panels to higher level assemblies.

FTG, headquartered in Canada, has been expanding its global presence through a number of strategic initiatives, and is today announcing its plans for an Aerospace design and manufacturing facility in Hyderabad, India. India was selected by FTG due to its growing prominence in the global aerospace and defence market, and its“Make in India” policies which encourage investment in the country.

FTG will support customers around the world as well as in India from this new site. After evaluating numerous locations, the selected site is located at the Hyderabad Airport, in a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) which facilitates tariff free trade between India and the rest of the world. The facility construction is underway and is being built to suit FTG's requirements. As part of the agreement, FTG has an option to expand the facility by over 200%.

Brad Bourne, President and CEO, FTG Corporation, commented,“this new manufacturing facility is a significant milestone for FTG, reinforcing our commitment to India's 'Make in India' initiative. India is a growth market for FTG, and this expansion will enhance our ability to deliver high-quality, innovative solutions to the aviation and defence sectors. The Hyderabad facility will mark FTG's fourth country for Aerospace manufacturing, after Canada, the US and China. We will continue to focus on commercial aerospace and defence avionics, with a special emphasis on Human Machine Interface (HMI) devices.”

FTG invites attendees to the Aero India 2025 Exhibition, to visit our booth at Hall J, for more details on this exciting new venture.
