04:53 AM EDT, 10/17/2024 (MT Newswires) -- General Motors ( GM ) and Foxconn are set to reveal plans to swap out imports to Mexico for local production later this month, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing Mexico's Deputy Economy Minister Vidal Llerenas.

The Mexican government is also in discussions with other companies like DHL and Stellantis ( STLA ) to assess which products can be manufactured in the country, according to the report.

Llerenas further said that Intel ( INTC ) has already committed to substitute 12% of imports of some parts such as heat sinks and thermal trays, while appliance maker MABE may switch more than half of its imports into local products, Reuters said.

The companies did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' requests for comment on the matter.
