The pandemic lockdowns, rising cost of goods from China, and challenges in global logistics are showing the advantages of having trustworthy suppliers outside of China, including countries such as the Philippines.
The Philippines is located in the western Pacific Ocean, just south of Taiwan, and offers very sophisticated factories, recognized globally as reliable suppliers for many decades. Yet the Philippines’ labor rates are competitive with China, encouraging large companies such as AAC Technologies, Knowles and Sonion to move production to the Philippines.
Based in Hong Kong, Philippines, France and the US (San Diego), Kaertech offers full turnkey services with state-of-the-art product design and manufacturing services. From R&D to engineering and manufacturing with a strong focus on electronics, the company is able to offer support in the early stages of product development and help companies refine product specifications. The company's state of the art System Assembly Manufacturing facility in the Philippines specializes in high end precision manufacturing.
For over 50 years in business, Dai-ichi Electronics Manufacturing is a leading name in audio manufacturing globally, with five factories in the Philippines, a massive factory in Shanghai, China, and since 2016, also a high-quality speaker assembly operation in California, following the acquisition of Radian Audio Engineering. With its roots and manufacturing expertise deeply connected with leading Japanese brands, Dai-ichi quickly evolved to become the secret manufacturing base for many leading Asian, Japanese, America and even European brands.
The APEI online event is presented by the two APEI Supply Chain and Sourcing chairs, Mike Klasco (Menlo Scientific), and Dave Lindberg (DB Enterprises), which in this event will talk to Colin Ward (Kaertech), and Dwight Tobiano (Dai-ichi Electronics Manufacturing Corp.), discussing what makes the Philippines an attractive region for audio manufacturers.
