Byrna Technologies Expands Presence in Argentina, Adding Airport Security Deployment
19 September 2024 - 10:30PM
Byrna Technologies Inc. (“Byrna” or the
“Company”) (Nasdaq: BYRN), a technology company
specializing in the development, manufacture, and sale of
innovative less-lethal personal security solutions, today announced
a 1,000 launcher order from Argentina’s Policía de Seguridad
Aeroportuaria (“PSA”), the federal agency responsible for airport
security across the country.
The PSA initially purchased Byrna’s less-lethal
pistols and rifles in April. Since then, the agency has been
training officers to use the launchers and has recently begun
deploying them in airports across the nation.

“This latest deployment of Byrna launchers with
the PSA further highlights our expanding presence in Argentina and
the increasing normalization of less-lethal solutions in both the
country and the region broadly,” said Bryan Ganz, CEO of Byrna
Teachnologies. “As our international footprint continues to grow,
we are gaining strong traction with law enforcement agencies that
are embracing less-lethal alternatives. These deployments reinforce
our leadership in the evolving landscape of public safety, and we
are looking forward to seeing the positive impact Byrna has across
Argentina.”
This order is another significant step in
Byrna’s expansion across Argentina. Earlier this year, Byrna
secured a 10,000 launcher order with the Córdoba Provincial Police.
The police departments of Lanús, Tigre, and Ezeiza, municipalities
near Buenos Aires, Argentina have also been using Byrna launchers
and ammunition in their units.
