ANGLETON, TX – Benchmark Electronics will relocate its corporate headquarters from Texas to Arizona.

"We are delighted to have selected the state of Arizona for the relocation of our headquarters," said Paul J. Tufano, president and CEO of Benchmark Electronics. "The move to Arizona helps position the future growth of Benchmark by allowing us to consolidate our corporate headquarters staff in a single location, expand our engineering capability through a partnership with Arizona State University, position us closer to our growing aerospace and defense customers, and serve as a foundation to expand our existing precision technology business."

The move, expected to begin in May, is anticipated to create more than 500 projected Arizona-based jobs over the next five years.

Benchmark has not selected a location for the headquarters operation, but is considering multiple sites in the greater Phoenix area.  An announcement of the exact location is expected in May.
