The company has begun to take steps to avoid the influence of Donald Trump’s new duties.
American buyers are in a hurry to apple stores, buying an iPhone against the back of fears about the future sharp rising prices due to Donald Trump’s new roles, Bloomberg reports.
Employees of various Apple stores across the country said that in the weekend stores were filled with customers, most of which asked if the prices would actually rise. Although the situation is not the same as the traditional launch of the new iPhone, the environment is like a New Year’s bustle, says one of the employees. The company did not provide stores clear instructions for answers to customer requests.
Against the back of the threat of new tariffs, Apple has begun to take steps: the company is building reorients’ products and logistics. In particular, it increases part of the iPhone made in India, directed at the American market – the duties for this country are lower than China. In addition, Apple actively expands production in Vietnam facilities, where Apple Watch, AirPods, iPad and some Mac models do. Also, part of the production is located in Ireland, Thailand and Malaysia.
It is likely that Apple will only negotiate with a lower margin to maintain prices from rapid growth. The last flagship of the iPhone from Apple now costs from $ 999 – this price remains unchanged since 2017.
We will remind you, earlier it was reported that Apple had lost $ 638 billion in three days.
