Panasonic PMPC Philippines Visits Hongzhou for Kiosk & PCBA Cooperation
This week, the team from Panasonic Manufacturing Philippines Corporation (PMPC) visited Hongzhou Smart’s Shenzhen headquarters. They toured our self-service terminal and PCBA intelligent manufacturing bases, with in-depth discussions on supply chain collaboration, customized terminals, and electronic manufacturing services.
Market background: Southeast Asian electronics manufacturing and self-service terminal expansion
Southeast Asia is a core region for global electronics manufacturing relocation. The Philippines, with cost and geographic advantages, serves as a key production base for international brands like Panasonic. Meanwhile, self-service demands in retail, finance, hospitality, and other scenarios are rising rapidly, driving steady growth in orders for self-service kiosks and intelligent PCBA. With years of expertise, Hongzhou offers end-to-end capabilities from R&D, structural design, and PCBA assembly to finished product integration, aligning closely with Southeast Asian market needs.
