Manufacturing & sourcing
Southern Manufacturing & Electronics 2027
A practical UK meeting point for electronics suppliers and manufacturing partners.
A practical manufacturing supplier show
Southern Manufacturing & Electronics takes place at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre on 2–4 February 2027. The show combines electronics suppliers and manufacturing services with the wider mechanical-engineering supply chain. That makes it useful when a project involves assemblies, enclosures, production equipment and outsourced manufacturing rather than a single component purchase.
Bring production requirements
The organiser provides an exhibitor directory and seminar programme to help visitors plan. Shortlist suppliers around anticipated volumes, test coverage, traceability and quality requirements. Discuss engineering changes, component availability and delivery assumptions alongside pricing. Its cross-disciplinary format can help teams resolve electronics and mechanical decisions together; check the current seminar timetable before arranging meetings.
A focused visit for UK sourcing teams
Visitor registration is open and free according to the organiser. The event is in Hall 1 at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, opening 09:30–16:30 on 2–3 February and 09:30–15:30 on 4 February. Use the exhibitor directory to shortlist partners, then take a brief covering quantities, quality, assembly and delivery requirements.
