Teleplan first expanded into Indonesia in 2007 and now operates three sites there – two in Jakarta and one in Surabaya. Teleplan has made a significant commitment to the country, with an Indonesian workforce of 240 people, and approximately US$2M invested to date. Teleplan’s services for electronic equipment range from Mobile, Storage, Network, LCD, PC & Notebook to Set-Top-Boxes. Until today, Teleplan mainly served global OEMs in the Mobile- and Smartphone segment. “This important strategic step will lead to a transfer of technology and engineering know-how and allow us to offer an even better quality of service to the Indonesian end consumer. As people in Indonesia spend more and more time online, their needs for better service and support can only increase”, commented Gotthard Haug, CEO of Teleplan. He added: “Growing our business in Indonesia will increase our local workforce and lead to further investments there.”
