As part of reorganization and labor shortage, Nokia planned to move four production lines from Salo factory, Finland, to Korea. Those four are categorized as early stage production, while six early stage stayed remained. The final assembly will be focused in Salo.

Nokia spokeswoman, Eija-Riitta Huovinen said, “it’s becoming increasingly important to have final assembly close to customers in order to deliver tailored products quickly. Nokia has hired around 400 new staff at the Salo factory earlier this year and now has 2,600 staff there.”
