In researching my new iPod purchase I found a few posts asking where iPods are made. For those of you who don't already know here's the answer.
iPods are manufactured on contract to Inventec Appliances based in Taipai, Taiwan. iPods are physically assembled by Inventec (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. in Shanghai, China.
Inventec Corporation is an electronics manufacturer that markets it own lineup of notebooks, servers, televisions, mobile phones and software in addition to carrying out manufacturing contracts for other companies around the world.
Inventec Corporation has a history with Apple dating back to the Newton PDA days and has manufactured several Apple products including at least the last few generations of iPod. Inventec Corp. has also held contracts with Toshiba for Microdrives and Notebooks. Interestingly enough, Inventec makes the drives that Toshiba is selling to Apple for the current iPod lineup.
FedEx confirmed my iPod was picked up from 7 Gui Qin Road, Shanghai 200233 P.R.C.
