TORONTO, July 12 /CNW/ - Adeptron Technologies Corporation (ATQ: TSX) ("Adeptron" or the "Company"), a specialist at delivering integrated product solutions and support to the global technology and electronics industry, announced today that it has partnered with a successful Electronics Manufacturing Solutions ("EMS") provider in Mexico. This new partner also provides procurement opportunities through offices in Hong Kong and Japan.

The Mexican facility assembles and integrates products such as Plasma & LCD TV's, marine GPS devices, mobile and Bluetooth devices and climate control devices. The facility is certified for ISO 9000:2000 and ISO 14000 and is ISO 16949 (quality management system focused on continual improvement, defect prevention and the efficiency of the supply chain) compliant. Assembly is conducted in a 42,000 sq. ft. facility that houses eight high speed SMT lines and five hand mount lines.

F. Michael Marti, CEO of Adeptron, stated, "Many North American companies recognize that in light of changes in the manufacturing sector in Asia, particularly in China, Mexico often represents a superior alternative when measured on a total cost of delivered product basis. Mexico is part of the North American Free Trade Agreement, enjoys fast and inexpensive trucking of goods to delivery sites and has a well educated workforce at a cost that competes well with other low cost geographies. We at Adeptron are very pleased to be able to provide to our customers and potential customers another seamless full-solutions location in Mexico and in close proximity to the border with the USA. Adeptron's partner handles new product introduction ("NPI"), medium to high volume printed circuit board assembly (SMT, BGA, and PTH), system integration, advanced X-ray inspection and various platforms of in-circuit test. We believe that this new service offering will be a significant addition to our sales and marketing efforts."
