What TRUSTED does

TRUSTED Implementation Kft. (formerly EKI Creative Kft., founded 2003) is a privately held Hungarian specialty manufacturing and services company headquartered in Érd, Hungary, with a US regional office in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The company delivers end-to-end point-of-sale (POS) and visual communication projects through four integrated service pillars: planning/design, manufacturing, installation, and consulting (the latter under the ENDORIENCE sub-brand). Its 4,000+ m2 manufacturing facility houses CNC machining centers (SCM, Perfect Laser), edge banding and drilling equipment, paint booths, welding stations, and vacuum material handling, supported by ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and designated as an IFKA Hungarian Modern Model Factory.

The company's customer base spans premium and luxury retail (international watch and jewelry brands), mid-market retail chains (car dealerships, telecommunications stores, bank branches, fast food restaurant networks), and digital signage buyers. Revenue is generated through one-time custom manufacturing contracts, professional installation services across Europe (delivered by direct employees with company-owned vehicle fleet), hardware reselling as an authorized Samsung partner in Hungary (The Wall MicroLED, Business TV, Crystal UHD signage, Smart Monitors), and project-based consulting. TRUSTED employs 51-100 people and is fully Hungarian-owned, having funded capacity expansion through approximately 209 million Ft (~USD 580K) in non-reimbursable government grants between 2016 and 2020 rather than external investment.
