Outsourced manufacturing a growth driver for the industry
2011went by and left the contract manufacturing industry with mixed results. But compared to 2010 aggregated revenues were still up, but just a bit, which meant a two year revenue growth streak. But as we all know, the year ended on a rather low level, with most companies reporting dull order patterns and a very uncertain start to 2012 as the economic situation did not provide any assistance.
