Archive Corp. plans to expand its Singapore manufacturing operation by building a new plant and hiring 250 additional workers.
Archive, a Costa Mesa-based manufacturer of computer tape drives, said the new plant will double its production capacity when it is completed by the end of 1989. Archive moved all its manufacturing operations from Orange County to Singapore in 1984.
Archive now produces more than 400,000 tape drives a year in Singapore, where it employs 750 people.
“Our objective is to forge a world-class manufacturing facility in Singapore, capable of developing and producing low-cost, high-quality tape drives and related products,” said D. Howard Lewis, Archive’s chairman and president.
