Epec has been in business since 1952, with numerous manufacturing plants throughout the United States and Asia producing time-sensitive printed circuit boards, quick-turn prototypes, and large production orders, along with flex and rigid-flex printed circuit boards.
After 55+ years in the printed circuit industry, the legacy of PTI has been passed to Richy Reynolds, who has serviced customers for many years and will continue to be your point of contact, carrying forward customer relationships as a member of the Epec team.
Ed McMahon, CEO of Epec, LLC, stated: “We are very excited and welcome PTI and their customers into the growing Epec family. Bob and Richy have built a business with a tremendous reputation for putting the customer first, which seamlessly fits into Epec’s core values.
“As Epec has successfully executed over 13 transactions exactly like this one with PTI, we are confident of a smooth and seamless transition of all the long-term PTI customers. We are very excited to springboard our focus in the Western U.S. with the addition of Richy and his years of technical experience. With 4 PCB shops closing over the past few months, we are uniquely positioned to grow our business through acquisitions given our significant financial and operational resources.”
