MINNEAPOLIS, April 17, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nortech Systems ("Nortech" or the "Company"), a global leader in digital connectivity solutions and data management engineering, is strategically positioned to serve customers in Europe and the Asia Pacific region while effectively mitigating the impact of global tariffs and trade challenges.
"The imposition of tariffs has significantly impacted contract manufacturers, including Nortech. However, Nortech's global manufacturing strategy has allowed the Company to navigate these challenges effectively," said Jay D. Miller, President and CEO of Nortech. "We are able to minimize the impact of global tariffs and continue to provide exceptional service to our customers worldwide. Our commitment to innovation and adaptability ensures that we remain a trusted partner in the industries we serve."
While tariffs continue to fluctuate, it is important to note that much of Nortech’s production work in China is built in-country, for-country, employing a near-shoring approach to better serve customers in the global market with reduced shipping costs and time.
By maximizing the Company’s global manufacturing capacity, Nortech is able to serve customers in Asia-Pacific, Europe, and Mexico while navigating complex trade environments and delivering stable, high-quality solutions across these key regions.
