Foxconn Chairman Liu Young-way departed Tuesday for a four-day inspection of the company's iPhone manufacturing facility in Zhengzhou, China, according to a source with firsthand knowledge of the situation.


This will be Liu's first visit to the world's largest Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone factory in his capacity as chairman. According to a source, his primary objectives will be to examine conditions following the resumption of production and to engage in substantial dialogue.


Once known as Hon Hai Precision Industries Co., Foxconn declined to comment. The source refused to reveal their identity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.


The iPhone plant of the Taiwanese corporation was struck by a COVID-19 outbreak late last year, which caused thousands of worker departures, unrest, and production difficulties.


In January, Foxconn reported that production at its Zhengzhou facility had "returned to normal."
