Perstek started in 1975 as Jeil Precision Industry and is a Korean defense company producing core defense components in the guided weapons and aviation fields, such as guided control devices and launch control devices.

The company has achieved localization of major components through continuous investment and research, and in 2021 and 2022, it received the highest Gold rating in quality evaluations conducted by Boeing in the United States, gaining global recognition.

The newly constructed main building, completed in this ceremony, was expanded and rebuilt after demolishing the existing building, consisting of ▲1st floor (drive device assembly workshop) ▲2nd floor (electronic workshop) ▲3rd floor (health and fitness room, Cheonmu export assembly facility) ▲4th floor (cafeteria).

Mayor Hong said, “I applaud the efforts of Perstek employees who worked hard to expand the factory during difficult times. I hope Perstek will continue to lead the defense parts production sector, its main industry, proactively. We will do our best to always actively support as a cooperative partner of local companies.”
