Yes but Apple also finances the factories and is deeply embedded. The system might just be the most advanced integrated supply chain on the planet.

- jonknee 8y agoSure, but plenty of companies actually assemble their own products (like say Samsung).
- theredbox 8y agoSamsung is not just samsung. Samsung is actually many companies working under the same brand and corporate culture. You cant talk about samsung as a single company.
- threeseed 8y agoYou're making a pretty pointless distinction though. Apple tells Foxconn how, what, when etc to assemble often using equipment that Apple owns. So the only thing Samsung has over Apple is that they employ those people. And what value is that adding ?
