Solectron Opens Aftermarket Services Center in Plzen, Czech Republic



    Solectron Corporation (NYSE:SLR), a leading provider of integrated
    electronic supply chain services including design, manufacturing and
    aftermarket services, today announced the opening of its new facility
    in Plzen, Czech Republic. The operation will provide high-tech
    aftermarket repair services and product fulfillment for leading
    companies in computing and telecommunications.

    For global technology brands, the percent of cost to repair
    computing, telecommunications, wireless handsets, data storage devices
    and other electronics continues to rise rapidly relative to the price
    of the product. Meanwhile, these technology companies must maintain
    high levels of customer satisfaction to sustain brand loyalty. Many
    companies are turning to Solectron to outsource high-tech aftermarket
    repair to reduce costs while maintaining or improving customer support
    levels.

    "Consumers today have extremely high expectations for product
    reliability and servicing, which means repairs must be done right and
    completed fast," said Craig London, executive vice president, Global
    Services, Solectron. "Solectron continues to lead the industry in
    high-tech aftermarket repair services, and our expansion in the Czech
    Republic supports our ability to meet growing needs of our customers
    to provide fast turnaround repair in Europe."

    Solectron's Plzen operation complements other high-tech
    aftermarket services centers in Western and Eastern Europe, creating a
    comprehensive services solution for technology companies in the
    region.
