Tata Electronics currently stands as Apple’s sole vendor in India. However, Apple aims to expand its manufacturing infrastructure by potentially doubling its casing facility. The company’s existing collaborations in India include major players like Foxconn, Pegatron, and Wistron, with Tata Electronics recently acquiring a significant stake.
In a related development, Foxconn has secured approval for substantial investments in Karnataka, totaling Rs 8,000 crore, with plans for an additional investment of Rs 13,911 crore. This expansion aligns with Foxconn’s broader strategy, as reported by Business Standard.
Furthermore, Financial Times (FT) highlights Foxconn’s plans to establish worker dormitories in Tamil Nadu, a move aimed at ramping up manufacturing capabilities. Scheduled for 2024, Foxconn’s subsidiary FIT is slated to inaugurate a facility near Hyderabad’s airport to produce Apple’s AirPods. This site is expected to include accommodations for its workforce, mirroring Foxconn’s established practices in China and Vietnam.
