It would take a huge uproar with the police and military siege and seizure of the News 24 Television building on August 9 of this year for Albanians to learn about the existence of a new state-owned company called "KAYO".

Its administrator Ardi Veliu and then Prime Minister Edi Rama declared that it was an important state-owned military company, which will bring the armaments, equipment and uniforms of the army and other security forces in Albania to a level worthy of a NATO member country. According to the Prime Minister, its main objective will be the production in our country of combat drones and armored vehicles.

Earlier, Edi Rama, speaking about the standards of the Albanian army and police in the context of EU membership, spoke of a new era of quality and dignity for uniforms. But it seems that the story continues: New promises, old noise!

What is the company "KAYO" in letters and what is its objective?

 The weapons manufacturing company "KAYO" was registered at the National Business Center on October 16, 2024, while the company's founding date is September 24, 2024. The KAYO company will be managed by a 7-member board, while the administrator will be the former Director General of the State Police, Ardi Veliu. It was created with an initial capital of 150 million lek.

The company "KAYO" has as its object the design, production, repair, demilitarization, destruction and trade, within and outside the country, of all types of weapons or parts of weapons, including military weapons, ammunition, military technologies and equipment, uniforms, means, equipment and weapons and communication systems, as well as any activity related to this activity, in function of national security and defense policies and the increase of military capacities. Throughout the development of its activity, the company also pursues economic and commercial interests.

New company with old partners and how to do it without fear of SPAK, "corruption by law"

Despite the ambition and sensational proclamation that Prime Minister Edi Rama has made to "KAYO", as a company that in collaboration with prestigious companies in the world will produce the first Made in Albania drones, that finally the military, police and other security forces will have quality and dignified clothing and equipment like their counterparts in NATO and the EU, the first thing that its administrator, Ardi Veliu, has done has been the creation of several umbrella companies, to continue the old corrupt affairs with the same clients, but this time without tenders and public procurement. In other words, the creation of a private-state monopoly in this field.

The entity "MKD" with NUIS "M52008029J" was established as a joint stock company, on 01.08.2025, with the object of activity, the production or trade of weapons and ammunition for the armed forces of the Republic of Albania and other Security structures.

The entity "GUNA TACTICAL" with NUIS "M52008021O" was also established as a joint stock company, on 01.08.2025, with the object of activity of producing or trading uniforms and accessories for the armed forces of the Republic of Albania and other security structures.

The commonality of the creation of these entities is not only the same date of creation, but also that it is the same partners who created two companies.

"MKD" has as shareholders: 20% the state-owned company, "KAYO" with NUIS "M42216020F", with administrator Mr. Ardi Veliu and 80% the private Albanian company, "MSSC (MILITARY SYSTEM SUPPLY COMPANY)" with NUIS "L01306040L", with sole owner Mr. Emiljano Dusha.

"GUNA TACTICAL" has as its shareholders: 51% the state-owned company "KAYO" with NUIS "M42216020F" with administrator Mr. ArdiVeliu and 49% the private Albanian company "MSSC (MILITARY SYSTEM SUPPLY COMPANY)" with NUIS "L01306040L", with sole owner, Mr. Emiljano Dusha.

Who is "MSSC" with sole owner Emiljano Dusha, who has been selected as a partner by KAYO?

According to the State Treasury transaction data on the Open Spending Albania website, the company “MSSC (MILITARY SYSTEM SUPPLY COMPANY)” is a long-term beneficiary of Albanian state budget funds. This company is a regular supplier of weapons and ammunition to the armed and security forces.

The supply contracts that this company has made with military and security structures have had values ??negotiated directly and without tender procedures.

The value of contracts executed by this company, only in the period 2018-2025, is 5,929,396,039 New Leke, or about 59,000,000 Euros.

During the period, October-December 2024, (the Ministry of Defense is the owner of KAYO), 7 (seven) contracts were concluded by the structures of this ministry through negotiation with the company "MSSC", with a value of 577'567'186 new Lekë, or about 6'000'000 Euros.

During the period, July 2018- December 2020, when the current administrator of the "KAYO" company, Mr. Ardi Veliu, was the General Director of the State Police, 9 (nine) contracts were negotiated with the "MSSC" company by the structures of this police, with a value of 309,254,013 new Lekë, or about 3,000,000 Euros.

What are the criteria for selecting the private company "MSSC" as a partner with the state-owned company "KAYO"?

The selection of the "MSSC" company was made in secret, according to the preference of the administrator of the "KAYO" company, Ardi Veliu.

If in the case of "MKD" there may be a limited number of companies with experience in the production or trade of military weapons and ammunition, the situation is different with the other company "GUNA TACTICAL".

The selection of the company "MSSC" as a partner of "KAYO" in the creation of "GUNA TACTICAL", as an exclusive enterprise for the production or marketing of uniforms and military accessories for the needs of the armed forces and other security structures in the Republic of Albania, is a purely corrupt act, unjustified and unsupported by any logic or normal legal or economic practice, without any sense or criteria.

No announcement or invitation has been made to Albanian companies that have many years of experience in the production of military uniforms and other security institutions. Some of these companies have the experience and ability to produce to NATO uniform standards and requirements and are currently producing uniforms for NATO.

Meanwhile, secretly from Ardi Veliu, for the creation of "GUNA TACTICAL", the weapons partner, Emiljano Dusha, sole owner of the Albanian company "MSSC", was selected.

The main activity of the company "MSSC" is the trading of weapons and military equipment.

Of the contracts concluded with the state during the years 2018-2025 with a value of 59,000,000 Euros, no contract for military or security uniforms resulted.

This company does not own a department for the production of military or security uniforms. Therefore, this company has no experience or history in the production of these uniforms.

So with the creation of "GUNA TACTICAL", "MSSC" has been chosen as a partner of "KAYO" to exclusively meet the needs of the armed forces and other security structures in the Republic of Albania.

Of course, "GUNA TACTICAL" will have direct contracts without tender, setting the prices of uniforms and equipment as desired.

The above facts are enough to prove that "GUNA TACTICAL" does not guarantee the quality or standards of the uniforms, but only guarantees higher prices and more funds stolen from the state budget.

The scheme is clear. It was specifically created as an umbrella and corrupt mechanism to quietly and legally abuse and steal state funds./ Alfapress.al
