“I congratulate Teltonika on the start of construction of the new plant, which not only marks the company’s rapid development, but also contributes to the strengthening of high-tech and innovation in Lithuania.

The new production facilities will be located in Liepkalnis, on the territory of the Teltonika High-Tech Hill Technology Park. It will create 700 jobs and will manufacture IoT products developed by Teltonika, as well as contract manufacturing. The production capacity will reach more than 18 million products per year.
“We are building a new electronics assembly plant, which will be bigger than the two existing plants in Vilnius and Molėtai combined. In a couple of years, we will have twice the production capacity we have today, which will allow us to meet our growth needs. Our current production capacity allows us to reach an annual turnover of up to €1 billion, and by doubling the number of production lines, we will be able to have an annual turnover of €2 billion in 2026, if sales go smoothly,” says Arvydas Paukštys, founder and president of the Teltonika company group.
