Historically they have provided schematics, bom and gerbers to allow you to build your own, perhaps find some local PCBA or contractors.

Which board? Getting licenses for ST-LINK operation might be complex, and the EVAL boards are pretty expensive.

Might do better via vendors on AliExpress, TaoBao, etc for boards that are actually mass produced at significant levels.

Good morning,

ST does not customize the boards it produces. However, it is possible to contact some of our partners to evaluate whether this is feasible.

I'll give you the link to our partners and I'll also give you a link to one of these that might be right for you.

As I recollect WaveShare was building some DISCO, and NUCLEO boards.

 

Depending on application, vendors like WeAct Studio, selling "Minimum Boards"

For screens and panels, perhaps look at boards from GHI Electronics, Riverdi, MikroE, etc
