FST21, a leading technology company specializing in the field of automation and security, has recently expanded its operation with the opening of a new office in Brazil.

The new location is based in São Paulo, Brazil's largest city, and also the largest city proper in the southern hemisphere and Americas. The office is staffed by eight administrative, sales and technical personnel who serve FST21's growing customer base in South America.

“Brazil has experienced a substantial growth in past years and continues to do so”, notes Daniel McQuoid, Managing Partner for FST21 Brazil. He points out that Brazil will be hosting three world-class events - the Confederations Cup 2013, World Cup 2014, and Olympics in 2016 - in the next four years. "This will generate a great demand for new technologies such as those FST21 brings to market to reinforce security and access control."

“FST21 is growing at a rapid rate”, adds Major General Aharon Zeevi Farkash, CEO of FST21. “Our innovative In Motion Identification capabilities in general, and our SafeRise access control software in particular, are sought after solutions across the globe”, he adds. “We are pleased to now serve our South American customers from our new, state-of-the-art Brazilian office facility.”
