Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., the world's largest electronics contract manufacturer, better known as Foxconn Technology, is set to expand its server production capacity in Mexico to meet 'crazy' demand for Nvidia's next-generation Blackwell GPUs and servers on its base, reports Bloomberg. The company's move indicates a strong belief that AI-related investments will continue to rise.
Young Liu, chairman of Foxconn, told Bloomberg Television that demand for GB200-based NVL72 servers with 72 B200 GPUs for AI and HPC workloads had exceeded initial expectations and was 'crazy.' To that end, Foxconn is building one of the world's largest server assembly plants in Mexico, which will produce machines for companies in North America without relying on capacities in China, Taiwan, or Southeast Asia. The Taiwanese company has already invested over $500 million in its Mexican operations in Chihuahua, reports the South China Morning Post.
