In the face of rising tariffs, increased labor costs, and geopolitical instability, leading brands are now evaluating manufacturing, supply chain, fulfillment, and after-sales services regionalization strategies as a valuable option to increase flexibility and support business continuity.
Flex’s global footprint and diverse supply chain network, combined with our deep expertise, allows us to partner closely with our customers to identify their regionalization goals and deliver with speed and agility.
We offer manufacturing at scale in more than 100 sites across 30 countries.
Our global presence and scale provides you the flexibility of sourcing components and building products in region, or rapidly shifting production to other worldwide locations as demand or regulations change.
With one of the world’s largest and most diverse supply chain networks, we can quickly respond to evolving regional, trade, and manufacturing dynamics. We work with 16,000 suppliers to source more than 1 million parts. Our scale and geographic breadth address logistical and sourcing challenges in any region across the globe.
We work closely with suppliers to understand how and where they source their materials. We continuously monitor and analyze supply network data, and then present that information as actionable insights so that you can respond quickly to changing dynamics and improve resiliency.
Our supplier relationship management tools are built on Ivalua, allowing us to collaborate with suppliers on full end-to-end procurement, supply chain, and quality processes. This results in faster operations and lower error rates.
Our services and solutions meet the demands of most fulfillment networks in any region. Agile capabilities in B2B, B2C, D2R, and D2C meet evolving end customer requirements — while configure to order (CTO) postponement activities lower inventories, increases velocity, and ensures high fill rates to multiple channels.
