Apple to Certify Two New iPhone and iPad Suppliers Soon





The company from Cupertino will certify two new Asian factories to help in manufacture of the iPhone 5c and iPad mini soon. The reason for such a decision is growing demand for the devices. Current Apple’s suppliers - Foxconn and Pegatron - can’t cope with the production load.

AppleInsider writes that:

Taiwan-based contract manufacturers Wistron and Compal Communications will come on board to supplement existing partners Foxconn and Pegatron, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Wednesday. Wistron will reportedly handle iPhone 5c production, while Compal will build Apple's iPad mini.

The relationship between Apple and Foxconn is said to be strained, with the paper citing labor issues, disagreement over responsibility for manufacturing defects, and Foxconn's reluctance to dedicate more resources to orders from Cupertino as primary factors. Apple currently accounts for approximately 40 percent of Foxconn's yearly revenue.

I hope that the two new factories will help Apple satisfy the demand for iPhones and iPads.
