Sustained Market Sets Stage for Growth

A partnership between The Vision Care business group of ZEISS and OPTIK TUNGGAL has been extended with an Advanced Technology clause in addition to pre-signed agreements on manufacturing, distribution and licencing. The partnership enables OPTIK TUNGGAL to produce world class lenses for the Indonesian market.

"The sustained upward trend in the Indonesian market has convinced us to put our relationship with OPTIK TUNGGAL on a new footing, and to set the course for further growth under the umbrella of ZEISS technology,” says Ven Raman, Managing Director of ZEISS Southeast Asia.

“It is marriage of the brands. On one hand OPTIK TUNGGAL has a history of 80 years; on the other, ZEISS has been an optical leader in the world for more than 165 years. We are keen to learn from ZEISS and incorporate the best technology to provide quality lenses and services to spectacle-wearers of Indonesia,” says Michael W. Kurniawan, Director of OPTIK TUNGGAL.

Michael W. Kurniawan and Ven Raman inked the memorandum of understanding for “Advanced Technology Collaboration” on 22nd January 2014 in Jakarta, Indonesia, in the presence of Dr. Michael Kaschke, President and CEO of Carl Zeiss AG.
