What Janco Electronics, Inc. does

Janco Electronics, Inc. is a privately held, family-owned electronics contract manufacturing services (EMS) company headquartered in Rollinsford, New Hampshire. Founded as The Janco Company in 1958 and incorporated under its current name in 1985, the firm operates from a single facility at 50 Goodwin Road serving customers in defense, medical device manufacturing, telecommunications/RF, aerospace, industrial, and commercial sectors across North America. The company holds ISO 13485:2016 medical device certification, DDTC/ITAR registration, and IPC/J-STD workmanship certifications, which together qualify it for regulated, high-reliability assembly work.

The company's core technical capabilities center on printed circuit board assembly, including surface mount technology (SMT) with fine-pitch BGA and 0201 component placement, four automated through-hole processes combined with wave and selective soldering, RF and microwave testing from 10 MHz to 65 GHz, and electromechanical box build integration. Supporting capabilities include 2D/3D X-ray inspection, flying probe and in-circuit testing, and supply chain management leveraging more than 60 authorized distributors with KANBAN/JIT and bonded inventory programs. All operators maintain IPC-A-610 and J-STD-001 certification, and the company maintains a counterfeit component mitigation program with ERAI and GIDEP membership.

Janco generates revenue through custom project-based quotes on a turnkey or consignment basis, acquiring customers via direct enterprise sales, its website's Request a Quote form, and referrals, with sales led by VP of Business Development Matt Janetos and President and CEO Rollins L. Janetos. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies with bill of materials complexity, volume, testing requirements, and lead time. The company has no external institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no patents; current operating signals include an active blog with 2025-2026 updates, sustained certification maintenance, and pursuit of CMMC compliance to deepen defense-sector penetration.

Emerging players

• EIT (Electronic Instrumentation & Technology): EIT provides electronics manufacturing and testing services with a strong focus on test and measurement capability. Overlaps with Janco's RF/microwave testing positioning, though smaller and more specialized in instrumentation.

Broad incumbents

• Kimball Electronics: Kimball Electronics is a publicly traded global EMS company with strong medical and industrial verticals. It is larger and broader geographically, but competes for the same regulated, high-reliability contract manufacturing programs.
• Benchmark Electronics: Benchmark Electronics is a global EMS serving aerospace, defense, medical, and industrial customers with high-mix, low-to-mid-volume positioning. Significantly larger, but pursues similar programs in regulated verticals.
• SigmaTron International: SigmaTron is a US-headquartered EMS with operations in the US, Mexico, China, and Vietnam serving industrial, medical, and consumer markets. Larger scale and broader vertical exposure than Janco, but overlapping on industrial PCB assembly.
• Sparton (Ultra Maritime): Sparton, now part of Ultra Maritime, is a larger US defense and maritime electronics manufacturer with deep ITAR/DoD heritage. Comparable defense electronics customer base, though at significantly larger scale.

Direct peers

• Creation Technologies: Creation Technologies is a North American EMS focused on high-reliability industrial, medical, aerospace/defense, and telecom markets. Similar mid-market contract manufacturing positioning and customer mix.
• Mack Technologies: Mack Technologies is a US EMS provider serving aerospace, defense, medical, and industrial customers with PCB assembly and box build services. Similar mid-size, high-reliability focus and customer verticals.
• IEC Electronics: IEC Electronics is a US-based contract electronics manufacturer focused on defense, aerospace, and medical markets with similar low-to-mid-volume, high-mix positioning. Comparable regulatory profile (AS9100, ISO 13485, ITAR) and customer base make it the closest like-for-like public peer.
• Nortech Systems: Nortech Systems is a US contract manufacturer providing PCB assembly, cable/harness, and box build for medical, industrial, and defense customers. Similar size and vertical mix make it a strong direct comparison.

Regional players

• Vexos: Vexos is a North American EMS with facilities in the US, Canada, and China serving medical, industrial, and aerospace/defense customers. Comparable service offering but with a broader geographic footprint.
