The move is in response to growing interest in the group\u2019s printed-circuit-board assembly (PCBA) products and box-built equipment.<\/p>\n

Group managing director Alvin Mui told\u00a0StarBiz<\/em>\u00a0PIE is now in negotiations for several new major contracts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are also getting feedback that our orders will continue to grow this year,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Some of the new deals should be concluded in the second half of 2018.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the deals are finalised, we will produce in Penang data transmission equipment and electronic component for the automotive industries,\u201d Mui said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He added that the budget for the expansion had yet to be finalised.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be the biggest expansion in the history of the group. We can expect the initial spending to be around RM30mil, which was the amount spent for the expansion four years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current expansion exercise involves renovating an existing warehouse in Seberang Jaya into a production facility and increasing the number of surface mount technology production lines to 25 from 14.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe renovation should be completed by early 2019,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
