Apple tests Aequs in latest India supply chain push

Karnataka-based diversified contract manufacturer Aequs group has moved to the “trial stage” to be onboarded as an Apple supplier, said people familiar with the development. If the maker of toys, consumer durable goods and aerospace parts passes the trial stage, it is likely to become the second Indian company to make it to the American technology firm’s supplier list and the sole domestic firm to make parts for MacBook personal computers and Apple watches, they said.
