Dublin, Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Contract Manufacturing: Global Markets to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global market for contract manufacturing is expected to grow from $686.4 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $968.7 billion by the end of 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2030.
Contract manufacturing presents a cost-efficient avenue for businesses that minimizes production expenses through economies of scale and acquisition costs of machinery. It also provides access to affordable labor. Overall, it offers an efficient and strategic approach to production, driving competitiveness and ensuring high-quality products for businesses.
Companies across various industries, such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, automotive and consumer goods, are streamlining their operations, which helps reduce overhead costs. By outsourcing production processes, manufacturing businesses can focus on their core expertise, minimize capital expenditure, enhance innovation and improve product time-to-market. For example, in September 2024, Foxconn, a Taiwanese multinational electronics contract manufacturer, planned to invest around $1 billion to set up a facility in Tamil Nadu, India, to assemble smartphone display modules. The display module is expected to primarily support Apple's iPhone production along with other manufacturers like Pegatron and Tata Electronics. Strategic initiatives from key players, technological advances and the expansion of prominent industries will foster market growth over the projected period.
