According to the company, the manufacturing center can also handle a monthly production capacity of 6 million units. At least, this is Vivo’s plan for now. Interestingly, this center alone can take care of over half of Vivo’s current production needs. This also means that it will probably become the core center of Vivo’s future manufacturing.

Presently, Vivo has five major smartphone manufacturing centers in different parts of the world. It has a manufacturing center in Dongguan, Chongqing, India, Bangladesh, as well as Indonesia. With full production, it can have a production capacity of 200 million terminal devices per year. Recent data shows that in 2019, Vivo’s annual R&D investment exceeded 10 billion yuan ($1.4 billion). In addition, Vivo has also clearly stated that its technical investment has no upper limit. This means that its R&D investment can hit any figure depending on its needs.
