Foxconn invests in auto parts manufacturing
Foxconn, a company known for its 3C (computer, communications, and consumer electronics) products, has a role to play in automotive parts manufacturing. On February 12, 2007, Ding Qi'an, a spokesman for Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd. of Taiwan, China, revealed that Foxconn Holdings Co., Ltd., a Hong Kong-listed subsidiary, will build two industrial parks in Liaoning. This is Foxconn’s first large-scale investment in the northeast.
Foxconn Technology Group will set up two new plants in Shenyang City and Yingkou City. The factories in Shenyang mainly involve precision CNC machine tools and nano-copper-magnesium alloy automotive parts and components projects; in Yingkou, the coastal industrial bases are mainly invested in the production of electronic products such as printed circuit boards. Foxconn's investment in Liaoning, in addition to its electronic business, also involves the manufacture of auto parts. Although Foxconn's business does involve precision mold technology, this is Foxconn's first indication since entering the mainland that it will enter the auto parts manufacturing sector. Although they refused to disclose the specific amount of investment, there are still well-informed sources that the Hon Hai Group plans to invest $1 billion in Liaoning. According to media reports, Foxconn started to manufacture auto parts. Foxconn Technology Group president Terry Gou stressed that the company "will not enter the ranks of vehicle manufacturing."
Comments: Some analysts said that Foxconn's move is mainly aimed at the huge automotive market in the Mainland. The Northeast is an important base for automobile production. It is said that Foxconn has entered the auto parts industry and mainly wants to use the cost advantage of the Mainland to enter the supporting system of global heavyweight vehicle companies. Its cost-consciousness, quality awareness, and service awareness will cause the mainland parts market to be challenged, and even cause parts manufacturers to reshuffle their brands. The automaker will obtain cheap and good supporting products from here.
