SAN JOSE – The worldwide electronics manufacturing services market grew 12.5% last year, while the assembly market rose only 0.5%, according to Electronic Trends Publications. 2009 will see a steady drop, but the EMS market will surge again in 2010, as a result of outsourcing, says ETP. The research firm says electronics assembly reached $964 billion last year, and will reach more than $1.2 trillion in 2013. The firm says the EMS industry will increase from $294 billion in 2008 to $435 billion in 2013.
