Apple is expanding iPhone manufacturing to Brazil through its primary contractor, Foxconn, which has diversified assembly operations beyond China. With the iPhone 16e now manufactured at the Foxconn plant in Jundiaí, São Paulo, retail packaging reflects this local production. This strategic move aligns with Apple's objectives in response to Liberation Day tariffs, as Brazil offers favorable 10% import taxes, providing a more advantageous environment for manufacturing compared to China.
Foxconn, Apple’s main contract manufacturer, has been diversifying iPhone assembly locations and has confirmed that the iPhone 16e is now manufactured in Brazil.
Retail boxes of the iPhone 16e sold in Brazil indicate local assembly, as they proudly display the tag 'Assembled in Brazil - Brazilian Industry'.
