The French subsidiary of Swiss electronics manufacturing services provider Cicor has been selected by a major European aerospace and defense group to supply electronic assemblies, in a contract that could ultimately exceed €50 million. The deal, announced by Cicor’s parent company, underscores the growing role of the firm’s operations in France within the high-reliability defense sector.
The unnamed European prime contractor selected Cicor France for the production and delivery of complex electronic subassemblies, with the total contract value dependent on the final scope and duration. The announcement did not specify a timeline, but contracts of this scale in the defense industry typically run over several years and involve stringent certification and quality requirements.
Cicor’s French subsidiary brings specialized expertise in high-mix, low-to-medium volume electronics manufacturing, serving demanding sectors such as aerospace, defense, and medical technology. This award significantly bolsters its order book and reinforces the group’s strategic push into the European defense supply chain, where long-term program visibility and high barriers to entry favor established players.
