The Pegatron Vietnam plant is located in the Xinxing Industrial Zone of Haiphong City, Vietnam. The company originally planned for mass production in the second half of 2021, but due to the impact of the new crown epidemic, the plant did not start mass production until this year.

At the request of customers, Pegatron has accelerated its pace to set up factories in Southeast Asia in recent years. The Vietnam factory mainly produces consumer electronic products, mainly some products of the Microsoft Surface series, as well as foundry businesses such as Google smart speakers.

Moreover, Pegatron’s production capacity covers Taiwan, Mexico, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, and other places. Among them, in Southeast Asia, Batam, Indonesia was the first to mass-produce, mainly producing Netcom products, while Vietnam and India only entered the mass-production stage this year, and India mainly plans to manufacture iPhones.
