Company «Electric Solutions» (EKF brand) launched the production of electrical products in the Sobinsky district of the Vladimir region, with the help of which it is planned to replace imported analogues. This project is focused on creating high-tech import-substituting production capable of competing in the world market. In particular, sockets, switches and distribution boards are mentioned.

As part of the modernization of the enterprise, modern equipment equipped with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) — technology was introduced, allowing for remote monitoring and analysis of production processes. This will not only improve operating efficiency, but also reduce energy consumption costs by 10–15%, which is important for improving the economic sustainability of the enterprise.

Investments in the modernization of production amounted to more than 288 million rubles, half of which was provided by the Industrial Development Fund as a preferential loan under the Development Projects program. This project has also led to the creation of more than 120 high-performance jobs, which contributes to the development of the region's economy and increased social stability.
