Frost & Sullivan selected Celestica, a provider of innovative electronics manufacturing services, for its 2005 Electronics Manufacturing Services Company of the Year Award. The award acknowledges Celestica’s successful market diversification, year-over-year revenue growth, technology leadership, and its strategic and balanced global presence. In 2004, Celestica’s revenue increased by 31 percent over 2003, and the company applied lean and Six Sigma to maximize its return on working capital.
