maquiladora plant
Common in the automobile industry. (And in specific, slightly different, use in the charcuterie business, but I doubt this is your case!!).
For US English, I think you'll find that the Spanish term is very well established in English, and indeed I think it will also be fine for British English (I used to "translate" it but now leave it as it is.)

in-bond assembly plants
Just in case you want an "English" term for this - though, as they examples say, they are now frequently known as "maquiladoras" in English too.
Example sentence:
The most dynamic exporters in Mexico are in-bond assembly plants, known as maquiladoras.
The in-bond assembly industry in Mexico eventually grew to be known as the maquiladora program.
