Apple's New Supply Chain?




Adam Seeton
Apple has debatably the Number 1 supply chain in the world right now. Based out of China, Apple has been able to keep customers and suppliers on board year by year. Now, within the next six weeks, we may be seeing Apple add another Supply Chain that will be based out of India. Government officials believe that the new plant will be out of Bangalore and run by Wistron Corp., a Taiwanese manufacture. This will help Apple sell much more Apple products in India. India is a huge smartphone using country, but always decide to buy the cheaper phones. Another reason why Apple is willing to add another supply chain in India is because of how much the sales growth has been slowing in China. This is not only beneficial to Apple, but to India as well. If Apple decides to finalize the deal, it will open a lot up for India and the technology industry.

  1. Interesting article! I am also interested in Supply Chain and how it all works. I didn't even know that Apple had a supply chain in China so this article was very interesting and informative. This new deal will bring in a lot of new products and income for both India and Apple. Good post! :)

    1. Thank you for the comment! Yes a lot of the larger companies are run with a supply chain. Getting supplies from the suppliers and shipping the final products off to the customers. India should definitely benefit from Apple's new decision!
