Data from the Zhengzhou customs show that this 1 ~ September, Henan Province Import and export volume of 38.73 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 14.4%, but a noteworthy data is that 14.4% of the growth rate, up to 13% are driven by Foxconn.

Since 3 years ago, the central province of Henan, relying on the labor force advantage, the Foxconn "married" came in, the annual import and export volume of the national ranking has been relying on Henan, the annual import and export volume leaped into the middle of six provinces, the first in the country ranked 13th.

A data from the Department of Commerce in Shanxi Province shows that so far, Foxconn Group is still the main driving force for the growth of import and export of Shanxi province, of which, in January-August this year, 15.9% of the growth of foreign trade in Shanxi Province, 12.52% were driven by Foxconn. But with the increase in domestic sales Foxconn, Shanxi Province in the month of August import and export both showed a large decline, down 32.1% year-on-year.

In particular, desktops, laptops, pad and other products, the market impact of large, Foxconn has to plan to the three production of desktop companies to integrate into one. Visible, the product structure determines the Foxconn Wuhan factory to Hubei foreign trade contribution.

However, in Hubei's export share, Foxconn's status can not be underestimated, one of its enterprises exports accounted for 27% of Wuhan City, Hubei Province, 14%.
