J+S Look to Develop Far East Connection

During December, J+S embarked on another trip to the Far East to boost its presence in the area at a major Defence show in Langkawi, Malaysia.  The Langkawi International Maritime & Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA) is the premier destination for aerospace and maritime manufacturers targeting the Asia Pacific growth markets.

At LIMA there was considerable interest in the company’s innovative Low Profile Array developments which were being show cased for the second time in Malaysia.   The J+S team was very excited about the interest shown and the opportunities that exist in the country.

Commenting on the exhibition, Business Development Manager Paul Knight stated:

“J+S selected LIMA to strengthen the company’s position in the Defence and Security Market in the region. The LIMA exhibition proved to be an excellent platform for Defence based companies to display and promote the latest technology to senior Government officials, both civil and military and leaders of industries from Malaysia as well as the Asia Pacific region.”

Managing Director David Jeffries commented on the need to further develop J+S business in the Far East:

“We’re very excited about the prospects for J+S in Malaysia and the wider Asia Pacific region. We see opportunities for both our Naval Defence and our Oil & Gas business here and the positive feedback we have received from exhibitions like LIMA has reinforced our views on the Defence market”

J+S Ltd operates from sites in Barnstaple and Aberdeen, employing 136 people engaged on a range of engineering and production activities, primarily in naval support, marine renewable energy and subsea asset management for the North Sea Oil &Gas exploration markets.
