The strong, silent type: Singapore's Venture Manufacturing is a quiet success
Article Abstract:
Singapore's Venture Manufacturing has a devoted following among stock analysts even though the consumers who use many of its products have never heard of it. Under managing director Wong Ngit Liong's leadership it has soared to the top of the contract manufacturing industry, which grew from $26 billion in annual global sales in 1994 to $40 billion in 1995. Venture leads thanks to highly skilled engineers and managers, state-of-the-art equipment, superior logistics, and diverse customers and electronic products.
