XIAOMI Corp's Indian unit will start making wireless audio products in the country through a partnership with electronics manufacturer Optiemus in a push to further localise its operations, reports Reuters.
Xiaomi India will make its first local audio gadget at Optiemus Electronics' factory in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, the company said in a statement, reiterating that it was targeting a 50 per cent increase in the production of components locally sourced by 2025.
The push comes as the manufacturer of the Redmi brand of smartphones recently lost out to South Korean rival Samsung as India's top smartphones company.
The company did not say what kind of audio product it will make in the Indian factory, but it is 'committed to forging more such collaborations for a wider range of categories, across our product line.'
