Foxconn to Build $270 Million Plant in Vietnam to Supply Apple (AAPL)
“Apple Inc. (AAPL) supplier Foxconn Technology Group is planning to build a $270 million plant in Vietnam to produce tablets and computers for the Cupertino-based company. The new plant will be located in the northern province of Bac Giang and will focus on producing iPads and MacBooks.”
The move comes as part of Foxconn’s efforts to diversify its supply chain amid ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China. The company already has manufacturing facilities in both countries but is looking to reduce its reliance on China.
Vietnam has become an increasingly attractive destination for tech companies looking to shift production out of China due to lower labor costs and a more stable political environment. The country has also signed free trade agreements with several major economies, including the European Union.
Foxconn’s investment in Vietnam is expected to create thousands of jobs and further boost the country’s growing electronics manufacturing sector.
In addition to Apple products, Foxconn also manufactures devices for other tech giants such as Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), Sony Corporation (SNE), and Nintendo Co., Ltd.
