As per details, Jusda is the only authorized supply chain management company of Foxconn Technology Group.
Several reports said that a Foxconn Technology Group plant in Sriperumbudur is all set to deliver the newest devices only weeks after they start shipping from factories in China.
According to a Bloomberg report, the firm started production to narrow the gap between the operations in India and the manufacturing base in China.
As per the report, Apple is engaged in a multiyear initiative to broaden its manufacturing beyond China. This move aims to reduce supply chain vulnerabilities for its critical products, given the increasing uncertainty in trade due to tensions between Washington and Beijing.
All set to be announced on 12 September 2023, the new iPhone is slated to be the biggest update to the device in three years.
Justda claims to have more than 20 years of experience in lean supply chain management, that focuses on end-to-end supply chain integration in the whole process for the manufacturing industry.
