Foxconn might open a factory in Brazil

Foxconn is about to build a new plant in Brazil dedicated largely to the manufacture of components for Apple products. Plants that it would join the foundry owns in the city of Jundiai and is intended to HP and Sony. It reports the Brazilian daily Redebomdia claiming that Foxconn is preparing to open its third plant by 2013 after receiving several million dollars of investment.

This information has not been confirmed by Apple or Foxconn. It is therefore appropriate to step back, but it is nevertheless not impossible. Foxconn is already well established in this city and could enjoy the favors of the administration for a third plant Apple or not. We also know that a Brazilian millionaire has already launched appeals in Cupertino and if the two events are probably not related, they show the willingness to host the firm's products in that territory.

This would also be a geographical advantage for Apple outsources mainly in China.
