Hon Hai Precision Industry will recruit over 100,000 people in mainland China to produce the newest iPhone from Apple Inc, Taiwan's Economic Daily News said, in what the report called the firm's largest single hiring spree in China.
Fellow Taiwanese contract manufacturer Pegatron Corp will expand its workforce in one mainland factory by 30%, also in response to expected high demand for the new iPhone, Economic Daily News said.
Hon Hai, the world's largest contract manufacturer of electronic goods, will produce 70% of the phones, largely anticipated for release this autumn, with Pegatron set to produce the remaining 30%, according to the report.
Hon Hai had no comment on the report.
Representatives for Pegatron could not immediately be reached for comment.
