TAIPEI -- Huawei has been stockpiling components for months as it aims to double its smartphone sales next year despite expectations of a further U.S. crackdown.
Huawei's goal is to ship between 60 million and 70 million phones in 2024, two industry executives told Nikkei Asia, doubling shipments compared with this year and last. The company has also been building up its inventory of lenses, cameras, print circuit boards and other parts since earlier this year to meet that goal, multiple supply chain managers and analysts said.
