AUSTIN, TX - Dell
Computers, the world’s No. 2 PC maker, has decided to expand its presence in
the Chinese and Indian markets.
According
to CEO Michael Dell, the company will also make significant investment in the
area, particularly in China, and has reportedly said that the company would buy
$70 billion in hardware components from China between 2007 and
2009.
The PC
maker has had a presence in China since 1998, and already employs about 6,000
there, but the company also has announced plans to try to sell more products in Asian
countries.
"This
year, we plan to introduce 50% more notebook platforms than we
introduced last year, including…new products aimed exactly at Chinese customer
needs," Dell reportedly said at a news conference.
Company
sales in China reported grew by 54% in 2007. "When we look at the
potential for expansion, we do see enormous opportunity ahead,” said Dell.
