- On a global level we supply the majority of the leading vehicle and automotive producers with a wide range of high-tech electronic products, ranging from vehicle interfaces through data processing units to driver interfaces.

- Here in Tallinn our production is focused on production of tachographs, power distribution centers and electronic control units, told Toomas Papstel, Stoneridge Electronic's Tallinn Site Manager. Additionally we also have sales and support functions here, a design center as well as a prototype and test lab manned by development and industrialization engineers.

- Right now we are also in the process of setting up production lines for manufacturing wiring harnesses, a project that I'm deeply involved in, added Per Lindberg. We are indeed a global company having factories, design centers, and sales and support functions in North and South America, Asia and Europe. We have a close cooperation between our locations, and here in Tallinn we have a more or less daily cooperation with our design center in Bromma, just west of Stockholm, and our Swedish factory in Örebro.

- Globally, 67% of our production goes to the medium and heavy truck, agricultural and off-highway markets, with the remaining 33% going to the auto and light truck markets. In terms of global sales North America has a 78% share and Europe currently has the remaining 22%. But, Europe is growing and we naturally also have a lot of hopes for the development of the huge Asian market, concluded both Per Lindberg and Toomas Papstel.

On behalf of the SCCE group I would like to thank Per and Toomas for a couple of very interesting afternoon hours at Stoneridge Electronic's impressive plant.

Sincerely,
