After denying initial report, Apple might expand iPhone assembly in Brazil after all
After denying initial report, Apple might in fact use two factories in Jundiaí to assemble U.S.-bound iPhones and circumvent U.S. tariffs.
In a report dated April 25th, Exame stated that Apple began studying the possibility of updating the machinery and industrial processes at Foxconn’s facilities in Jundiaí last year and will, in fact, use these factories as alternatives to supply the U.S. market. It is worth noting that during last week’s earnings call for fiscal Q2 2025, CEO Tim Cook and CFO Kevan Parekh did not mention Brazil when discussing Apple’s strategy to mitigate the impact of President Trump’s tariffs. He began covering Apple news in Brazilian media in 2012 and later broadened his focus to the wider tech industry, hosting a daily podcast for seven years.
