Apple begins exporting India-made iPhones to European markets

NEW DELHI: Apple has started to export iPhones to some European markets from India, three people aware of the development said, a move that boosts the government’s Make in India plan and is another step in the iconic smartphone company’s efforts of making India an export hub.

The Cupertino-headquartered company’s contract manufacturer Wistron Corp’s India arm, which first started assembling iPhones in the country back in 2016, has become the first of Apple’s contract makers to export the smartphones, from its facility in Bengaluru.
