Acer and Dixon Tech partnership for Laptop manufacturing in India
Acer India, the leading PC brand, and Dixon Technologies have partnered for the manufacturing of laptops at Dixon’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility situated in Noida. The manufacturing unit was inaugurated yesterday (Nov 24, 2021).
This will give a strong impetus to India's manufacturing competitiveness and leverage the production-linked incentive (PLI) by Government of India.
* The factory will have capacity to produce upto 500,000 laptops annually.
Acer will bring in the global know-how and processes to manufacture high-tech electronic products in laptops category which will be implemented through Dixon’s facilities.
Acer believes that this key initiative will help to grow the electronic manufacturing ecosystem which will help us to serve domestic and global markets from India.
The PLI for IT hardware brought by Government of India is a game-changer that will have the advantage to increase domestic value addition and significantly position India as a key export’s hub.
The impetus to PC manufacturing is particularly significant as it can help reduce imports which have become all the more important as their usage increase rapidly amid the Covid-19 restriction.
