Team was founded in 2002 and is located near the Research Triangle in North Carolina. The acquisition of Team represents a significant opportunity to enhance the growth of East West and advance the Company’s strategic focus on growing its electronics capabilities and establishing US manufacturing operations.
"We found the perfect partner with Team to expand our manufacturing presence into the US," says Scott Ellyson, East West co-founder and CEO. "Team has a great reputation for serving its customers. This acquisition allows us to offer our customers domestic, higher mix, lower volume, quick turn electronic manufacturing services.
