Samsung Electronics Co will stop operations of its last computer factory in China

Last year South Korean tech giant Samsung already shut down its last smartphone factory in China. Its remaining facilities include two manufacturing sites in Suzhou and Xi’an, two towns in China.

Samsung is the latest manufacturer to shift production from the world’s second-biggest economy. Samsung Electronics company will stop their operations of its last computer factory in China, the company said. This is the reason for the U.S.-China trade war and the blow from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Many of employees (about half of 2000) will be affected by the decision.

"China remains an important market for Samsung and we will continue to provide superior products and services for Chinese consumers," the company said in a statement.
