Exhibit 99.1

         IEC Announces a Change in the Senior Management of the Company

Newark, NY, November 10, 2004 - IEC Electronics Corp. (IECE.OB) announced today
that Ann Wood, Corporate Vice President of Operations, has resigned due to
personal reasons. Don Doody who will join IEC from Plexus Corporation, will
assume her role.

CEO and Chairman W. Barry Gilbert stated, "In her many years of service with
IEC, Ann has brought great value to the Company and leaves a strong legacy of
policies, practices and procedures which has enabled the Company to maintain its
strong quality reputation in the marketplace. We thank Ann for her contribution
and numerous accomplishments. Ann's leaving is a loss to the Company; however,
it is important that we respect her decision. We are fortunate that Ann will
support IEC in a consulting role making the transition considerably easier, and
as seamless as possible for our customers. The addition of Don Doody along with
the balance of the senior management team are well positioned to continue
rebuilding and strengthening the company."

Don Doody has been hired to be the Vice President of Operations. "We are pleased
to add Don to the IEC team" said Gilbert, "Don brings solid experience and
proven results to the company, and we look forward to his contributions. With
more than 8 years of industry experience, we believe that Don will be
instrumental in continuing what Ann has started and will further strengthen and
build upon her efforts. Don's demonstrated industry knowledge and leadership
will help focus our efforts in ways that add the most value to our business."

Mr. Doody started his career with GE Transportation and Industrial Systems and
became a Master Black Belt/Supplier Quality Engineer. He moved to Plexus
Corporation as a senior manufacturing engineer and was recruited away to become
VP/GM of MCMS's North Carolina facility. When Plexus acquired MCMS Don became
responsible for leading Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma initiatives throughout
the company.

Don holds a Bachelor's in Engineering from the State University of New York,
Buffalo. He also holds a Master's degree in Industrial Science from Colorado
State University.
