- Foxconn plans new Huizhou plant
Date: 23-Nov-2007 Sources: (Shenzhen Daily)
FOXCONN International, which makes mobile phones for the likes of Motorola and Nokia, plans to spend more than US$500 million building a plant in Shenzhen due to start up in 2008's third quarter.
Foxconn, a division of top Taiwan electronics parts maker Hon Hai, would build the plant in the southern city of Huizhou in Guangdong Province, taking pressure off a Shenzhen plant now operating at full capacity, a spokesman for the firm said Thursday. The firm hoped to hire over 10,000 workers next year and begin shipments from the second half of the year from a plant that's expected to eventually become its main manufacturing operation in southern China, the spokesman said.
