Mayor Avedisian and the Department of Tourism, Culture and Development had the pleasure to tour Teka Interconnection Systems located at 100 Pioneer Avenue in Warwick for the May One-on-One outreach program.
Teka Interconnection Systems was founded over 30 years ago and is a "vertically integrated company".
Some of Teka's abilities include; high speed precision stamping, plastic injection molding, and connector manufacturing. Mayor Avedisian was given a behind the scenes tour by President, Jim Zanolli and Administrative Manager, Maureen Smith. While on tour Mayor Avedisian learned first-hand how Teka designs and manufactures application specific and industry standard interconnect devices right in their Warwick location.
Devastated by the floods of 2010 Teka has rebuilt there business from the ground up. After installing new electrical wiring, moving all outlet plugs and windows higher, installing new flood barriers and new machinery Teka is back home in their original building. When speaking with the Mayor about the floods, Mr. Zanolli said he and his staff stayed positive throughout the ordeal and was 100% up and running within four weeks after the floods in a temporary location.
