Shortly after this interview and tour of facilities, Jason Szuch was off to the Dominican Republic, then to Mexico. He just returned from Hong Kong.
What draws an Ada guy to these far flung locales? Business! He founded and owns Hospitality Wi-Fi and SAY Security which are located in Grass Run Industrial Park.
His effort has been successful. Sales topped $5 million last year. He looking for $10 million in 2016. He built both firms from the ground up during the past 11 years.
Hostility Wi-Fi provides internet connection to major hotel chains, large condo complexes, schools, and universities.
The company recently installed WiFi for a business in Ft. Myers Beach that manages 2,300 locations.
There are more than 1.5 million unique logins each month using the WiFi his company installed. That's a lot of talk.
As you know, sometimes there is a glitch with WiFi, so Hospitality Wi-Fi provides a call center 24/7 to help.
Currently, his two companies employ 45 people with 23 of them located in Ada. The others are stationed in the U.S. and in five foreign countries.
His second business, SAY Security, specializes in surveillance video, especially for retail, the transportation market, and government, which includes VA hospitals, FBI, military, New York City, and Border Patrol. He also sells dash cam cameras and body cameras for state patrols.
Information from the cameras is sent to computers then stored at a Cloud data center.
His employees in Ada include sales, administration, support, production, and software engineers.
The cameras are designed here, the parts are manufactured in China, and then the cameras are assembled in Ada.
In case you are interested, the explosion-proof camera can run you anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.
By the way, the security cameras at the Ada Schools are from SAY Security.
Jason attended Ada Schools until his sophomore year when enrolled at Temple Christian, graduating from there.
He successfully grows and keeps on top of technological change in the two businesses he owns and manages here. Rapid change in these two areas of business is constant.
