TSMC Mulls German, Japan Plants to Diversify Supply Chain
Debby Wu, Bloomberg News
(Bloomberg) Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. is in the early stages of considering a new chipmaking plant in Germany, Chairman Mark Liu told shareholders on Monday.
The worldâs biggest chipmaker is also continuing its due diligence around building a semiconductor facility in Japan and that decision will depend on customer demand, Liu said. The company is engaged in weekly talks to assess the viability of such a project.
In both cases for potential international expansion, TSMC will look to share the cost, whether with customers or government authorities eager to bring its business within their borders. For the U.S., where TSMC is in the process of setting up a plant in Arizona, the company said its production will be primarily aimed at infrastructure and national security applications.
