Apple also wants to expand in Ireland

Demand for Apple products continues to surge, not only in the United States and China, but also in many European countries, which stand out as major markets. One of these is Ireland, where Apple plans to expand its factory in Cork . According to AppleInsider , the Cupertino-based company could double the size of its Irish factory to ensure the continued production of its Macs, which are manufactured in Ireland, unlike its iPhones , which are assembled in China.

In fact, more than a year and a half ago, Apple invested over $300 million in a major expansion, but it is also believed that the company could spend another $900 million on a data center in the coastal city of Galway , Ireland.

With this other project, Apple could hire more than 300 people for the construction process and another 150 full-time employees once it becomes operational in an area of ​​24,505 square meters in just the first stage.

What remains unknown is the objective behind this expansion . It could be a significant increase in their computer production, which would mean hiring more workers and thus taking advantage of the low taxes in this country. However, the European Commission appears poised to impose higher taxes on them, along with other companies operating in the region.

This latest construction in the country would be part of the large investments that the company is making in China , Japan and Israel to be able to meet the demand for its products.
