Four male and one female staff were tied up while the robbers ran away with 100 boxes of electronic components, which were worth around $1 million.
One staffer and a visitor were slightly injured with a stun gun by the men, the spokesman said.
Police searched the site and found the stolen electronic components inside two vans in the industry building's parking lot.
