Introduction
Please give a general description and introduction to your organization.
Logitech is a world leader in products that connect people to the digital experiences they care about. Spanning multiple computing, communication and entertainment platforms, we develop and market innovative hardware and software products that enable or enhance digital navigation, music and video entertainment, gaming, social networking, and audio and video communication over the Internet.
Logitech has two operating segments, peripherals and video conferencing.
Our peripherals segment, which includes retail and OEM channels, encompasses the design, manufacturing and marketing of peripherals for PCs
(personal computers), tablets and other digital platforms.
Our retail sales and marketing activities are organized into three geographic regions: Americas (including North and South America), EMEA (Europe,
Middle East, Africa) and Asia Pacific (including, among other countries, China, Japan, Australia, Taiwan and India).
We sell our peripheral products to a network of distributors, retailers. and OEMs. Our worldwide retail network includes wholesale distributors, consumer electronics retailers, mass merchandisers, specialty electronics stores, computer and telecommunications stores, value-added resellers and online merchants. Our OEM customers include the majority of the world's largest PC manufacturers.
Our video conferencing segment encompasses the design, manufacturing and marketing of video conferencing products, infrastructure and services for the enterprise, public sector, and other business markets. Video conferencing products include scalable HD (high-definition) video communication endpoints, HD video conferencing systems with integrated monitors, video bridges and other infrastructure software and hardware to support large-scale video deployments, and services to support these products.
We sell our video conferencing products and services to distributors, value-added resellers, OEMs, and direct enterprise customers.
Since 1994, we have had our own manufacturing operations in Suzhou, China, which currently handles approximately half of our total production of peripheral products. We outsource the remaining production to contract manufacturers and original design manufacturers located in Asia. Our LifeSize video communications products are manufactured in Malaysia under contract with a third-party manufacturer.
In 2013 we extended our reporting boundary to include our leased facility in Suzhou which handles mostly SMT assembly for in-house produced products.
