CIUDAD JUAREZ, MEXICO -- Flextronics has completed the first phase of its planned 1.9 million sq. ft. facility in here, the company said today.

The site, as previously reported by Circuits Assembly, will perform build-to-order services, electronics assembly, metal stamping, plastic injection, repair and distribution. It will employ 4,000 employees within five years, the company said.

Flextronics' operations in Mexico include an industrial park in Guadalajara and a manufacturing facility in Aguascalientes. Overall, Flextronics employs more than 14,000 people in the country.

Flextronics said it would offer employees at the Juarez plant "unique programs to promote a best-in-class working environment." It did not specify what those programs would be.
"We look forward to the opportunities in this region and are fully committed to leveraging the unique benefits of Ciudad Juarez to provide our OEM customers with increased logistics solutions and proximity to the North American market," said Matthew Ryan, executive vice president of worldwide operations at Flextronics, in a statement.
