Season Group (www.seasongroup.com),
one of the world’s leading Electronic
Manufacturing Services (EMS), has acquired the assets of San
Antonio’s DC Electronics. Building on its extensive international manufacturing
capabilities, the company will begin operations in San Antonio
immediately as all DC Electronics employees have been retained,
including founder John DiPonzio.
“This is a win-win situation,” says DiPonzio. “We now can leverage an
established global purchasing and manufacturing organization to provide
cost competitive services to our customers. If they want their products
manufactured in the United States, we can do that. If they want to send
products for offshore manufacturing, we can do that as well. This new
capability will definitely help our customers compete globally and
budget effectively.”
Season Group’s new facility will bring critical services, such as New
Product Introduction (NPI), Prototype and Quick-Turn Manufacturing, as
well as Low to High Volume Manufacturing, to a broad range of market
sectors, while establishing critically competitive product lead
times for its customers.
“Our expansion into San Antonio presents both business and consumer
advantages to a market in which Season Group is eager to establish
roots,” says David Chavez, Director of U.S. Sales for Season Group.
“It is a tremendous advantage to have a domestic site and use Season’s global
infrastructure to help our customers launch products quickly and
effectively,” says Chavez. “Having expanded operations also will help
establish more jobs and opportunities for residents of this great city.”
With operations already in full swing, Season Group plans to celebrate
the opening of a new facility in San Antonio with additional details to
be announced early this summer.
