Franchisees receive a demanded business with a payback from the first year, a minimum yield of 11.6 million rubles per year and an average annual revenue of more than 170 million rubles. To enter the business, investments in the amount of 30 million rubles are required. ROS is up to 75% ROS and above the industry average. The launch date of franchise production is 4 months. The company announced this on May 13, 2025.

Zaslon Industrial Partner is a platform for creating high-tech industries in strategically important regions of the country. The franchise gives entrepreneurs the opportunity to open their own mechanical processing enterprise under the ZASLON brand, while receiving:

• 3 years of guaranteed orders from ZASLON JSC;
• 100% buyback of finished products in the first year of launch;
• access to closed orders and projects in the defense and industrial industries, government subsidies and support measures;
• direct access to the Cross-MZK system - a closed register of high-margin contracts, available only to the internal structures of the ZASLON group of companies.

In 2025-2026, ZASLON will open the first franchise enterprises in Krasnodar, Stavropol, Ufa, Petrozavodsk, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod and other priority regions. The holding's strategy is to develop pointwise and qualitatively in order to maintain an individual approach and quality control, - said Anastasia Sergeevna Belousova, project manager of ZASLON JSC.

Cities for the launch of franchise industries were chosen taking into account the small distance from the main production site of ZASLON JSC to simplify logistics, as well as on the basis of the availability of specialized educational institutions for the training of specialists and specialized organizations that can act as partners and customers.

ZASLON JSC guarantees franchisees and their employees not only technological, but also social support: they will be able to use corporate social programs, and their family members - legal protection and support.

The new site plans to produce digital and analog chips to replace products from foreign manufacturers such as Texas Instruments, OnSemi, Microchip and Qorvo. The creation of a new production complex will allow the company to increase the production of domestic microelectronic products and strengthen its position in the field of import substitution of electronic components.

The company specializes in the production of prototypes of analog microwave chips that replace the products of UMS, Hittite, Analog Devices, Macom and Sumitomo. The production of plates with crystals is carried out in partnership with the St. Petersburg company Svetlana-Rost.

The housing of microcircuits is carried out by specialists of Zaslon JSC in the clean rooms of the Technopark of St. Petersburg as part of a technological partnership. With the launch of the new enterprise, the company plans to postpone and expand this production.
