TAIPEI -- Chinese smartphone maker Realme is expanding production in India despite a surge in COVID-19 cases there in an effort to capture local demand and extend its supply chain outside its home market.
Realme plans to begin assembling wireless earbuds in the South Asian country in the next three months, Madhav Sheth, Realme's vice president and CEO for India and Europe, told Nikkei Asia. All of the smartphones and TVs that Realme sells in India are manufactured in the country.
