Foxconn, the world's largest contract electronics manufacturer and Apple's main iPhone maker, is prepared to adjust its production strategies in response to new US tariffs. Chairman Young Liu stated that the company is capable of planning its manufacturing around these changes, particularly with US President Donald Trump's recently announced 25% tariff on all imports from Mexico and Canada, which has been paused until March 4.

Liu explained that Foxconn operates factories in both the United States and Mexico and will adjust production capacities based on the impact of the tariffs. He emphasised that Foxconn has the flexibility to move its operations between countries, minimising the overall effect of the tariffs on the company. However, Liu also warned that such tariffs are detrimental to the global economy, potentially shrinking markets.

Foxconn remains committed to working with US partners to align its manufacturing strategies with President Trump's push for more domestic production. Despite the uncertainty around the tariffs, the company is prepared to adapt as necessary.
