Irvine, California, (February 8, 2012) Probe Manufacturing, Inc., (OTC QB : CETY), a global electronics design & manufacturing services company, announced today that the company was featured in the Orange County Business Journal’s cover story “OC on the MAKE” which discusses the return of electronics manufacturing to U.S. based companies.  The featured article highlights Probe’s noteworthy turnaround story amidst an increasing demand for onshore manufacturing services as a result of increasing labor and fuel costs and quality control issues in lower cost regions.

“The Orange County Business Journal’s featured article on Probe Manufacturing reaffirms the increased demand for U.S. based electronics manufacturing, which companies in our sector have been experiencing.  We believe that this is not only evident in our recent financial results but consistent with our future projections.  We are truly thrilled that the Orange County Business Journal chose to feature Probe in its article on the return of U.S. based manufacturing, as such an issue couldn’t be more timely and important to the U.S. economy than it is right now”, said Kam Mahdi, CEO of PMI.
