History - present

TĚSNOHLÍDEK s.r.o. was founded in 1998. After years of doing business as individuals, Josef Těsnohlídek (father) and Miroslav Těsnohlídek (son) decided to establish a company together. As a certified partner of Siemens, TĚSNOHLÍDEK s.r.o. became the leading distributor of electric drives in the Czech Republic. We currently have a total stock worth over 40 million CZK. This makes us once again unique in the Czech Republic.

Our trading company TĚSNOHLÍDEK s.r.o., which has been selling electric drives only in the Czech and Slovak Republic for over 30 years, has been exporting electric motors and other electric drives to almost all over the world for more than 6 years.

The benefits of a long-term partnership

We benefit mainly from long-term cooperation with the world's largest manufacturer of electric motors Siemens. We are an official partner, which has its own production of low-voltage motors in the Czech Republic in the factories Mohelnice and Frenštát. The Frenštát factory used to produce MEZ motors, today it produces Siemens electric motors.

Thanks to our long-term professional but also personal cooperation with SIEMENS, we are able to supply electric motors at very low prices, with short delivery times and offer full support to our B2B partners from all over the world.
