Sony increases outsourcing to Taiwan
Japan’s Sony Corp is increasingly outsourcing television manufacturing to contract makers, primarily its Taiwanese partners, during this fiscal year to boost its market share.
The electronics giant expects for 50% of its TVs to be produced by its manufacturing partners during the fiscal year ending March 31 of next year.
Sony would see Hon Hai Precision Industry Co, one of the biggest electronics manufacturing service providers, become its biggest local partner. Taipei County-based Hon Pai acquired a second TV factory, located in Slovakia, from Sony in March.
This year, Sony added Compal Electronics Inc, a top contract notebook computer maker, to its manufacturing partner list.
