Foxconn is a Taiwanese contract manufacturer famous for building all Apple products. But you don't have to be as big as Apple to work with Foxconn. The Tijuana factory works with much smaller customers. Foxconn Baja California (FBC) can manage your entire supply chain, build your medical device, consumer, industrial, or automotive electronics, and deliver your product anywhere in the US. Put out a press release "We build our product at Foxconn" and investors and new customers will flock to you - I speak from personal experience. If you are concerned about the geopolitical situation and want to move your manufacturing from off-shore to nearshore, FBC, just a 15-minute drive from the border, could be a perfect fit for you. Email me at alexw3d@gmail.com or message me on LinkedIn, and I'd be happy to answer your questions and provide more information. I will help you understand if Foxconn is the right fit for you.
