Orqa Launches Global Manufacturing Partnership Program
OSIJEK, Croatia – Orqa, a prominent name in the development of FPV (first-person view) drones and unmanned aerial systems (UAS), has taken a bold step in expanding its production capabilities. The company recently unveiled its Global Manufacturing Partnership Program, aimed at significantly increasing its annual drone production capability to over one million units. This new initiative is set to thrive through collaboration with a network of trusted partners around the globe.
Decentralizing Drone Production
Building on a robust foundation, Orqa is currently capable of producing approximately 280,000 drones each year at its headquarters in Croatia. However, with the new program, they plan to decentralize their production model. This shift will involve strategic partnerships with various manufacturing entities worldwide, ensuring that high-quality drones can be produced in multiple locations.
Global Partnerships Across Key Regions
Orqa is already establishing partnerships across significant regions, including North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific. These collaborations are more than just contractual agreements; they represent a strategic approach to amplifying production capacity and are expected to facilitate further expansion of Orqa's global reach. Together, these manufacturing facilities will create a network that can efficiently respond to the growing global demand for high-grade defense UAS platforms, all while fostering local job creation and industrial revitalization.
Vision for the Future
“As a rapidly expanding company, our existing capacity of 280,000 drones manufactured at our headquarters is already impressive,” stated Srdjan Kovacevic, CEO of Orqa. “The Global Manufacturing Partnership Program will not only enhance this capability but also empower partner markets to produce identical high-performance drone systems using Orqa's standard components. The partnerships we've established so far position us well to reach our ambitious target of one million drones per year, an important milestone amid evolving global security situations.”
Engineering Excellence Meets Local Agility
Through the partnership model, Orqa is blending world-class engineering with localized production flexibility. This ensures that each partner adheres to the impeccable manufacturing standards that Orqa is renowned for, while also streamlining processes related to lead times, logistics, and regulatory compliance.
