Thank CTOnews.com netizens Rimi Ishihara for the delivery of the clue to happiness! CTOnews.com, October 6 (Xinhua)-- after the iPhone, Apple is asking its suppliers to transfer production of AirPods and Beats headphones to India, the Nikkei Asia News reported.
CTOnews.com has previously reported that Apple suppliers have begun assembling the iPhone 14 series of models in India. According to Nikkei, they now plan to make Apple headphones in India, while Foxconn has begun preparations for the production of Beats headphones in India, and hopes to eventually produce AirPods headphones in India.
In addition to Foxconn, Lixun Precision also plans to help Apple produce AirPods in India, but the company is now more focused on production in Vietnam, so it may start later than other AirPods manufacturers.
According to Bloomberg, the total cost of producing, selling and shipping iPhone in India to Europe and the Middle East is about $1 billion, which could reach $2.5 billion by March 2023 with new incentives.
Apple has put a lot of effort into expanding its production and supply chain to places such as Vietnam and Brazil, and plans to move 25% of its production to India by 2025, thereby reducing labor costs.
