Loaded Electronic Board Manufacturing in the UK - Industry Market Research Report

Steady flow: Sales struggle in the face of high global competition, but revenue stays fairly stable

Loaded electronic boards are the foundation for nearly all electronic products, ranging from consumer electronics such as mobile phones and personal computers, to sophisticated commercial equipment like data communications devices and computer servers. Although UK manufacturers make up just a small part of the global electronic goods manufacturing industry, UK companies have considerable strengths in electronics design. Due to high domestic labour and production costs, however, final electronic goods are increasingly manufactured in Asia, particularly in China, which is the world's largest producer of electronic goods.

Companies in this industry manufacture loaded electronic boards and load components onto printed circuit boards. The industry also manufactures sound, video, modem and network interface cards.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
