Samsung is reported by the Korean newspaper Electronics Times to be considering ending production of mobile phones at one of its two China plants.
Samsung’s market share in China has gone from 20% to 1% in five years as local brands Huawei, Oppo and Vivo have taken over the market.
The plant where phone production may be stopped is at Tianjin. Samsung has another mobile phone plant in China at Huizhou.
Samsung intends to use the Tianjin plant for other products if it pulls phone production there.
Tianjin produces 36 million phones a year, Huizhou produces 72 million while Samsung’s two Vietnam plants produce 240million phones a year.
