Austin Taylor Communications, located in Bethesda, Wales, United Kingdom, is a highly respected manufacturer of telecommunication products designed primarily to British standards. Historically, over half of the company’s sales have been to the United Kingdom but it supplies Hong Kong, other pacific rim markets and the middle east with British standard products. It’s products include residential line jacks, wiring boxes and harnesses, large street cabinets and local area network products.
Austin Taylor’s market share in the UK started to improve towards the latter part of 2002 as new UK distribution channels were opened. The launch of the "AT Net" Structured Cabling range helped generate this additional business, which should improve market share in all target market sectors and beyond.
Austin Taylor Communications started to develop a new manufacturing supply chain via the Far East, which will significantly improve our competitiveness, and improve profit margins in what remains a highly competitive environment.
