MC Assembly & Entrada Group Extend Manufacturing in Mexico Contract

Austin, TX - November 2, 2010 - Today Entrada Group announces that MC Assembly and the Entrada Group have agreed to a five-year extension of their strategic manufacturing in Mexico relationship. MC Assembly is a leader in the electronic contract manufacturing industry and serves its North American clients from its operations in Melbourne, Florida; Winchester, Massachusetts; and Zacatecas, Mexico. MC's diverse client base competes in the industrial, medical, aerospace, and defense markets.

Since partnering with Entrada Group in Mexico, MC Assembly has been able to provide its clients with a broader range of manufacturing options and price-point needs. The Zacatecas facility uses the exact same process as MC Assembly's Palm Bay, Florida, operation, assuring seamless quality for MC Assembly's clients who wish to transition operations to Mexico. To meet its clients' manufacturing demands, MC Assembly's Zacatecas operation has grown from 20 to 600 employees in the past five years.

"The quality and value of our Mexico production surpasses our - and more importantly, our clients' - expectations," says Mark McReynolds, MC Assembly CFO. "We've spent decades building a solid reputation of manufacturing quality electronic components and products efficiently and cost-effectively, and our Zacatecas plant is no exception. With Entrada's support, we've been able to continue our success across borders - and our clients have never been more satisfied."
