US President Donald Trump has now said that he has asked Tim Cook not to manufacture Apple products in India. Apple has been looking to diversify its device manufacturing locations and reduce its reliance on China, and with the recent implementation of tariffs, Apple has accelerated that transition. So, what should you know about it?
For your information, Apple is set to increase production in India, so that it can account for around 25% of iPhone production in the next few years. However, this did not please the President of the United States. Donald Trump requested that Apple manufacture and produce their products in the United States, and not in India.
Currently, Apple only produces the Mac Pro in the United States, while other products are manufactured in countries such as China, Vietnam, India and even Malaysia itself. Some analysts are ready to say that the probability of Apple producing products in the United States is low, as it would dramatically increase the cost of sales.
