Estonian drone maker Threod Systems wins tenders in three countries
Unmanned aerial vehicles of Threod Systems will mainly be used by the three countries' rescue
services. The company sold the first drones to its Greek partner last year but
will deliver a larger batch of UAVs for Greek firefighters next week, CEO Villiko Nurmoja told the paper.
Threod Systems
entered the Greek market, as well as Cyprus and Kazakhstan, by winning a public
procurement tender. The Cypriot contract is yet to be signed, but Kazakhstan is
initially purchasing two multiple rotor drones and if the goods are found
suitable a total of 15 drones will be bought for the police and border guard.
The company that made a breakthrough on external markets
with the three tenders seeks to expand further. One direction is Ukraine where
the search for clients has advanced so well that Threod Systems' former CEO Sten
Reimann now focuses solely on Ukraine and a separate legal entity has been
established in the country for successful contracting, the newspaper notes.
According to Nurmoja, a potential market in the longer run
is Indonesia. The company is also interested in the Estonian defense forces'
UAV tender.
