How Partstat’s FTZ Model Strengthens Semiconductor Supply and Financial Stability
In the semiconductor industry, one truth is becoming clear. Resilience depends as much on financial strategy as it does on supply chain strength. Lead times continue to grow, tariffs change without warning, and the pressure to keep production running never slows down. For manufacturers, the question is simple but critical: How do you secure your components for the future without locking away your capital?
That is where Partstat comes in. With more than 30 years of experience supporting the world’s leading semiconductor and electronics manufacturers, Partstat understands how to balance supply security with financial efficiency. Based in the United States, the company combines deep industry expertise with over one billion dollars in purchasing power to give customers a smarter way to manage long term component supply.
Securing Supply Without Sacrificing Capital
Instead of spending millions upfront on multiyear component buys, manufacturers can rely on Partstat to finance and manage those purchases. The result is a steady, predictable supply of semiconductors over several years while the customer’s own capital stays free for research, automation, and business growth.
It is a simple concept with a big impact. Protect your production pipeline, but keep your cash working where it matters most.
Storage That Protects More Than Components
Once purchased, every component is stored in Partstat’s Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) facility in McAllen, Texas. This secure, climate-controlled environment is built specifically for semiconductors. But the value of this facility goes far beyond storage.
Because it operates inside a U.S. FTZ, companies can defer or even eliminate tariffs on stored components until they are needed for production. It is one more layer of efficiency that combines compliance, cost savings, and peace of mind in one location.
Turning a Cash Drain Into a Strategic Asset
When manufacturers work with Partstat, they transform how inventory appears on the balance sheet. What might have been a ten-million-dollar cash drain becomes available working capital. That capital can fund innovation, build capacity, or strengthen the company’s financial position while production continues without interruption.
Building a More Resilient Future
Partstat’s FTZ model is more than a financial tool. It is a strategy for long term resilience in a world where disruption is constant. By combining financing, secure storage, and tariff advantages, Partstat helps manufacturers turn uncertainty into opportunity and gives them the freedom to focus on what they do best: building the technology of tomorrow.
