All locally-sold Samsung PC monitors will be manufactured in SA
According to Business Day, Samsung Electronics South Africa is to manufacture all its computer monitors sold locally in one of its assembly plants in Gauteng. Manufacturing the monitors at its plant in Edenvale, the company said, would give it more control over pricing and quality while also contributing to job creation and skills development.

He added that, while monitors and TVs are the only products planned for local assembly at this stage, the company is proud to be able to invest "in the local market and contribute to further employment opportunities and developing this country."
