Infineon Technologies AG is realigning its manufacturing footprint in Mexico. The company will gradually transfer production from its site in Tijuana, Mexico, to other sites, strengthening overall scalability, productivity and competitiveness. The Tijuana site focuses on backend manufacturing, including wafer sawing, assembly and testing, and is also home to an Infineon IT and HR service center. It was founded in 1973 by International Rectifier, became part of Infineon following the acquisition in 2015, and today employs several hundred people.
“The re-alignment of manufacturing activities at our Tijuana site supports the continuous optimization of our global manufacturing footprint and contributes to scalability and long-term competitiveness,” says George Lee, Head of Backend Operation at Infineon. “We are communicating this step at an early stage to ensure transparency. There will be no immediate changes for employees, customers or suppliers. We will carefully manage the transition and explore options for the future use of the site, including a potential sale, to create prospects for the local community and our colleagues.”
Production will be transferred over the next years, and all products will continue to be delivered to customers without interruption. Infineon’s manufacturing strategy is based on a balanced hybrid model of in-house manufacturing and strategic partnerships, with a strong focus on high productivity and competitive costs. Major backend sites serving international markets are located in the U.S., Europe and Asia.
