BEIJING, December 21 (TMTPOST) — Luxshare Precision is building a 285,000-square-meter manufacturing park in Kunshan China with an investment of 11 billion yuan (US$1.73 billion), according to a news report from Nikkei.
The manufacturing park is as large as 40 football fields and will start assembling iPhones as soon as next year. This means that Luxshare Precision will challenge the decade-long dominance of Foxconn Technology and Pegatron on iPhone assembly.
