==Manufacturing partnerships==
The production of some of Cherry's low-cost products has been outsourced to other manufacturers.

===Chicony===
Cherry's partnership with Chicony is a "a not so secret, secret". It was created to allow Cherry to gain access to the entry-level market, by providing keyboards with the Cherry name for potential customers who did not want to pay Cherry prices.<ref name="C-C" /> This was discovered with the [[Maxdata KB-0556]], a product marked with the Cherry name, but with distinctive Chicony characteristics such as the keycap mount. The KB-0556 has since been found to have Chicony's [[UL File Number]] of E164844 on the rear label.

===Primax===
Further UL File Number examination has determined that the [[Cherry G82-27000]] (part of the INITIAL range) was made by [[Primax Electronics]].

===Sunrex===
The [[Cherry eVolution STREAM XT]] keyboard was made by [[Sunrex Technology]]. Whether all [[Cherry SX]] keyboards are from Sunrex is not known at present.
