Taiwan’s industrial PC (IPC) manufacturers are intensifying efforts to localize production and expand their presence in North America amid increasing tariff pressures from the US. Ennoconn has altered its initial strategy to build a factory in Mexico, choosing instead to set up a new facility in Tennessee, with operations expected to begin in the third quarter of 2025. Similarly, Advantech is considering the creation of a printed circuit board assembly and contract manufacturing center in the US, signaling a wider industry move toward domestic production as companies adapt to evolving trade policies.
