<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure> Apple<\/a> has a backup plan if the US-China<\/a> trade war gets out of hand. The Cupertino-based company’s primary manufacturing partner has enough capacity to make all iPhones bound for the US outside of China if necessary, according to a senior executive at Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. The Taiwanese contract manufacturer now makes most of the smartphones in the Chinese mainland.
China is a crucial cog in Apple’s business, the origin of most of its iPhones and iPads as well as its largest international market. But US President Donald Trump has threatened Beijing with new tariffs on about $300 billion worth of Chinese goods, an act that would escalate tensions dramatically while levying a punitive tax on Apple’s most profitable product.
Hon Hai, known also as Foxconn, is the American giant’s most important manufacturing partner. It will fully support Apple if it needs to adjust its production as the US-Chinese trade spat gets grimmer and more unpredictable, board nominee and semiconductor division chief Young Liu told an investor briefing in Taipei on Tuesday.
“Twenty-five per cent of our production capacity is outside of China and we can help Apple respond to its needs in the US market,” said Liu, adding that investments are now being made in India for Apple. “We have enough capacity to meet Apple’s demand.”
Apple shares were up more than 1% to $194.99 in New York on Tuesday.
Apple has not given Hon Hai instructions to move production out of China, but it is capable of moving lines elsewhere according to customers’ needs, Liu added. The company will respond swiftly and rely on localized manufacturing in response to the trade war, just as it foresaw the need to build a base in the US state of Wisconsin two years ago, he said.
The US market accounts for one in every four iPhones sold worldwide, \"so it represents a huge portion of Foxconn’s manufacturing business inside China,\" Strategy Analytics analyst Neil Mawston said.
Foxconn would need at least one or two big factories outside China dedicated to serving Apple’s US requirements, Mawston estimated. If Foxconn freed up non-China production capacity for iPhones, other smartphone clients could find their orders temporarily delayed or sidelined in the short-term, he added.
Foxconn could shift some overseas work back to China to compensate. But without that, some of its Chinese factories may be idled.
And it’s not just about the simple assembly of finished goods. The trade war has disrupted a complex global supply chain involving many countries beyond just China and the US. Many components that go into devices<\/a> aren’t made in the US, despite being designed there. A phone chip designed by Apple may come out of a factory in Taiwan, then be packaged (a process that prepares it for integration into a circuit) somewhere else, before being shipped to China for assembly into an iPhone.
\"It would be relatively easy to shift final assembly of the iPhone outside China, but moving to full production of the components and the whole handset would be much tougher,\" Mawston said.
It’s unclear if India will ever become a major production base for Apple’s marquee device. Foxconn is now running quality tests for the iPhone XR series there and plans to begin mass production at a facility in the suburbs of Chennai. Older models are already assembled at a Wistron plant in Bangalore.
Foxconn has also agreed to build a 13,000-worker facility in Wisconsin in exchange for more than $4.5 billion in government incentives. But that project has since come under criticism for low-paying jobs, sudden dismissals and ever-changing goals. On Tuesday, executives reaffirmed that employment goal, saying construction remained on schedule and that it will hire as many as 2,000 Americans by the end of 2020.
It will also start making networking and server products for the US market by the end of next year, on top of LCDs starting next year, Liu said.

- 富士康将完全支持苹果如果需要调整其生产随着美中贸易争端越来越严峻,董事会提名和半导体处长年轻的刘说
- 公司是美国零售巨头最重要的生产合作伙伴
中国是一个至关重要的齿轮在苹果的业务,大部分iphone和ipad的起源以及其最大的国际市场。但美国总统唐纳德·特朗普威胁北京新价值约3000亿美元的中国商品的关税,此举大大升级紧张局势而征收惩罚性税收在苹果最赚钱的产品。
鸿海,也称为富士康,是美国零售巨头最重要的生产合作伙伴。它将完全支持苹果,如果需要调整其生产随着中美贸易争端越来越严峻,更不可预测,董事会提名和半导体处长年轻的刘周二告诉投资者简报在台北。
“百分之二十五的我们的生产能力是中国以外,我们可以帮助苹果公司应对其在美国市场的需求,”刘说,并称正在使苹果公司在印度投资。“我们有足够的产能,以满足苹果的需求。”
苹果股价上涨逾1%,报194.99美元,周二在纽约。
苹果没有给鸿海的指示,将生产从中国,但它能够移动行根据客户的需求,刘补充道。公司将响应迅速和依赖本地化生产的贸易战争,就像它预见到需要建立一个基地在美国威斯康辛州两年前,他说。
美国市场占全球每四个iphone售出,”这是一个巨大的富士康在中国境内制造业务的一部分," Strategy Analytics分析师Neil Mawston说。
富士康需要中国以外的至少一个或两个大工厂致力于服务我们苹果的需求,市场估计。如果iphone富士康释放中国以外的生产能力,其他智能手机客户能找到他们的订单在短期内暂时推迟或排挤,他补充说。
富士康可能改变一些海外的工作回到中国来弥补。但是没有,它的一些中国工厂可能闲置。
它不仅仅是简单的组装成品。贸易战争破坏了一个复杂的全球供应链涉及许多国家不仅仅是中国和美国。进入的许多组件设备不是在美国,尽管设计。手机芯片设计的苹果可能会在台湾的工厂,然后打包(一个准备的过程集成电路)在别处,在被运往中国,组装成iPhone。
“这将是相对容易的转变最终组装iPhone在中国境外,但搬到全面生产的组件和整个手机要艰难得多,”市场。
目前还不清楚如果印度会成为苹果的选框设备的主要生产基地。富士康现在iPhone XR系列运行质量测试和计划开始大规模生产设施在钦奈的郊区。老款已经聚集在纬创资通工厂在班加罗尔。
富士康还同意建立一个威斯康辛州的13000名员工的工厂,以换取政府超过45亿美元的激励。但是这个项目已经受到批评,因为低薪工作,突然解雇和不断变化的目标。高管周二重申,就业目标,建设仍然按计划,说它将雇用多达2000的美国人在2020年底。
它还将开始为美国市场生产网络和服务器产品明年年底,液晶显示器从明年开始,刘说。
