[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Gumi has celebrated the attraction of another company to lead future industries.

Sunnytec, a semiconductor materials and components manufacturer, held a completion ceremony on the 8th for its newly built factory in Gumi, Gyeongbuk.

On this day, Jang Se-yong, mayor of Gumi, personally attended the completion ceremony of Sunnytec’s Gumi factory, newly established in the Gumi National 1 Industrial Complex, and applauded the achievement.

About 60 guests, including Jang Se-yong, mayor of Gumi, Ahn Joo-chan, vice chairman of the Gumi City Council, city council members, and Kim Young-ho, chairman of the Small and Medium Business Association, attended the ceremony.

Sunnytec began producing semiconductor ceramic materials and components in 2015 in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do. Since establishing its corporate research institute in 2018, it has specialized in producing core semiconductor materials and components such as ceramics and quartz.

Due to the recent surge in global semiconductor demand, Sunnytec signed a memorandum of understanding with Gumi City in November last year to secure competitiveness in the growing semiconductor materials and components market, and completed the Gumi factory in June this year.

The company aims to create more than 40 local jobs by 2023. It is investing over 15 billion KRW and expects annual sales to increase from 4.7 billion KRW last year to 10 billion KRW this year with the establishment of the Gumi factory.

Mayor Jang Se-yong of Gumi said in his greeting, “We warmly welcome Sunnytec’s expansion investment from Gyeonggi-do to Gumi City amid the difficult economic situation caused by COVID-19.”

He also stated, “Gumi City will actively support Sunnytec to lead the semiconductor materials and components industry, its core business, and establish itself as a representative company of South Korea.”
