# Inside Samick Indonesia: Engineering Excellence in Musical Instrument Manufacturing
Since opening its doors in 1992, PT Samick Indonesia has transformed into a dominant global powerhouse in musical instrument manufacturing. Operating from a sprawling 43-hectare facility in Cileungsi, Bogor, the company expertly crafts and exports over 3,000 pianos and 35,000 guitars every single month. These world-class instruments reach musicians across the globe, spanning major markets like the United States, South Korea, China, Japan, Australia, and Germany.
