Association of representatives for the electronics industry
arei (formerly ADEC), was established in 1991 as a non-profit association, representing the interests of electronics industry in South Africa. Similar organizations exist in Europe.

Today, arei’s membership represent Suppliers, Distributors, Electronic Manufacturing Services and Original Equipment Manufacturers.
Worldwide, the electronics industry is an enabling industry for the growth of a country’s overall economy, and it is no co-incidence that the most developed countries in the world have a thriving electronics industry. Hence arei sees one of its key aims as communicating this message to government and policy-making bodies throughout South Africa, as there is a need for a more focused and coherent policy for the electronics manufacturing industry. To achieve this, arei has, in the past, sponsored studies of various sectors of the electronics industry and these findings have been published in technical magazines during the past years.
