Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics maker and assembler, already has major operations in Vietnam.

Foxconn Singapore has received a licence for a $263.7 million project to produce smart entertainment products with an annual capacity of 4.18 million units per year, the Quang Ninh newspaper reported.

The second project with an investment of $287.2 million and on an area of 12.4 hectares (30.64 acre), will make smart-system equipment.

According to the investment certificate, the two projects will complete construction in July, 2026. After a period of machinery installation and trial operation, they were due to launch official production in May, 2027.

Last year, Foxconn said it would invest about $250 million in two new projects in Quang Ninh to make electric vehicle and telecom parts.

Foxconn has invested more than $3.2 billion in Vietnam since first entering the Southeast Asian country in the 2000s. Most of its manufacturing plants are located in the northern provinces of Bac Ninh and Bac Giang.

Last month, Vietnamese state media said Foxconn has also received a licence to invest $383 million in a factory to produce printed circuit boards, Reuters news report said.
