Imran Shamsi is Vice President at Premier Metal Processing in San Diego, which offers anodizing, electrolytic nickel, bright tin, chemfilm, electroless nickel, electropolish, passivation, and zinc to customers across various industries. 

The company serves customers in the aerospace and defense, medical, electronics, oil and gas, connectors, microwave, nuclear, automotive, and commercial sectors.

The diversity of business sectors among Premier Metal Processing’s customers has been a significant benefit to its growth.

“We’ve purposely — as well as by luck — diversified so that we’ve always had the benefit of working with multiple industries,” Shamsi says. “We work within the aerospace industry, which is starting to be a little bit more constrictive for us. We do work a lot with parts destined for the Department of Defense, electronics, and semiconductors.”
