Electronics firm enters administration

A Leicestershire electronics manufacturer has slipped into administration, putting 30 jobs at risk.

AMG Electronics, which is based in Coalville, called in Rob Adamson and Mike Kienlen of Armstrong Watson to look after the day-to-day running of the firm on Monday (2 December).

The firm was set up in 2002 and is run by current chairman and chief executive Ian Bates.

AMG designs, assembles, tests, inspects, repairs, reworks and refurbishes printed circuit boards, photomultipliers, wired equipment and systems for industry, commerce and scientific research.
