Pegatron Technology will expand the production capacity of PegaGlobe (Kunshan), its subsidiary in eastern China, with an investment of NT$508 billion (US$16.4 million), according to the company.

In addition to the investment, Pegatron is also planning to expand the capacity of its plants in Suzhou, China in order to satisfy its clients' demand.

Pegatron is estimated to have a maximum capex of about US$300 million for 2015 and has been expanding its capacity, looking to raise its supply volume by more than 20%.

With a client's next-generation smartphone to soon enter mass production, Pegatron is looking to recruit about 40,000 workers from the end of June to October.

Pegatron has also been investing in some emerging industries such as wearables and car electronics. For 2015, Pegatron expects its revenue ratio for the first and second halves to reach 45:55, similar to the one in 2014.
