Electronics Manufacturing in Europe

A strong European manufacturing network – close to your market
GPV provides electronics manufacturing in Europe through eight manufacturing facilities across seven countries, from the Baltics in the east to Switzerland in the west. Our European footprint combines electronics manufacturing, engineering, testing, NPI and customer support within one integrated EMS network.

Customers can position production close to key markets, engineering teams and supply chains while benefiting from the scale and capabilities of a global EMS partner. Whether the goal is nearshore electronics manufacturing, supply-chain resilience, advanced engineering or cost-efficient serial production, GPV offers flexible manufacturing options across Europe.

With locations spanning Northern, Eastern and Central Europe, GPV enables customers to consolidate production closer to their end markets without sacrificing scalability, quality or access to specialist manufacturing capabilities.

Why manufacture electronics in Europe?
For many companies, electronics production in Europe has become an increasingly attractive way to improve supply chain resilience and reduce dependence on long-distance logistics. Manufacturing closer to European customers can shorten lead times, reduce transportation costs and simplify collaboration between engineering, procurement and production teams.

GPV’s European supply chain combines these benefits with access to a broad range of manufacturing environments, from high-engineering sites in the Nordics and DACH region to cost-efficient production facilities in Eastern Europe and the Baltics. This gives customers the flexibility to build a manufacturing setup that balances proximity, cost, production volumes and technical requirements within a single EMS partner network.

Electronics Manufacturing in Eastern Europe and the Baltics
Eastern Europe and the Baltics have become strategic manufacturing regions for companies seeking a combination of skilled labour, competitive production costs and close proximity to European markets. As part of GPV’s European EMS network, Estonia and Slovakia play a central role in delivering scalable electronics manufacturing and assembly services.

In Elva, Estonia, GPV Electronics EE is one of GPV’s largest European manufacturing sites. The facility provides electronics manufacturing, PCB assembly, testing, engineering services and box-build for customers across a range of industries. Located in the Tartu region, the site combines competitive manufacturing costs with excellent access to Northern and Central European markets. An additional assembly facility in Tartu supports final assembly.

In Slovakia, GPV combines electronics manufacturing with cable assembly and system integration capabilities. Electronics production in Nova Dubnica includes prototyping and NPI, SMT and THT assembly, box-build and testing. The factory in Piestany adds modern SMT, THT, coating, testing and box-build capacity. GPV’s cable operation in Hlohovec specialises in automated cable assembly and final assemblies.

Together, Estonia and Slovakia provide customers with a strong platform for electronics manufacturing in the Baltics and Eastern Europe, combining cost-efficient production, engineering expertise and access to the wider European market.

Electronics Manufacturing in Northern Europe
GPV’s Nordic heritage is reflected in a strong manufacturing and engineering presence across Denmark, Finland and Sweden. These locations combine technical expertise, advanced quality management and close customer collaboration.

In Denmark, GPV Electronics DK in Aars provides SMT and THT assembly, box-build, testing and electronics manufacturing services. Denmark is also home to GPV’s headquarters in Vejle.

In Finland, GPV Electronics FI combines manufacturing with particularly strong engineering and test capabilities. Our factory in Finland focuses on high-mix, low- and medium-volume electronics manufacturing as well as test development and design and engineering services. Oulu is a central location for GPV’s specialised test development expertise.

In Sweden, GPV Electronics SE provides high-mix electronics and systems manufacturing, complemented by engineering and after-sales services.

This Nordic footprint provides close collaboration with customers and access to advanced technical expertise. Combined with GPV’s manufacturing capacity elsewhere in Europe, customers can build a setup that balances engineering proximity, flexibility and cost-efficient serial production.

Electronics Manufacturing in Central Europe
GPV’s Central European footprint connects customers in key industrial markets with manufacturing, engineering and customer support capabilities across the DACH region.

In Germany, GPV Electronics DE in Hildesheim specialises in sophisticated serial production of electronic assemblies and supports customers with project management and engineering services. An additional office in Aichach provides local commercial and technical support.

In Switzerland, GPV combines electronics manufacturing in Mendrisio with Product & Application Design and other customer-facing activities, providing access to both production and engineering expertise.

Our office in Frankenmarkt, Austria, supports customers within GPV’s cable-harness business and is home to sales and key support functions.

For customers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, this setup combines local accessibility with the production capacity and flexibility of GPV’s wider European manufacturing network.
