Products and Production Apple is a company that occurred to be well-known today due to its innovations. It designs, manufactures, and markets “mobile communication and media devices, personal computers, and portable digital music players, and sells a variety of related software, services, accessories, networking solutions, and third-party digital content and applications” (“Annual Report” par. 2).

The majority of the hardware devices are manufactured in Asia by outsourcing partners according to the production commitments. The components are at acceptable prices and meet the Apple’s demands.
