Lenovo will establish assembly lines to produce desktops and notebooks in small volumes in the US to prepare for the business-use PC market and for government procurement orders.

In line with increasing the proportion of in-house production, Lenovo has set up five factories in China and one in Mexico and India each, and will set up factories in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and North Carolina, the US. Lenovo may also set up facilities in Germany and Canada, the sources indicated.

Lenovo plans to hike in-house production from about 20% in 2012 to 50% in 2013, the sources pointed out.

Lenovo had a global market share of 18.4% for business-use desktops in the third quarter of 2012, the second largest next only to 19.3% for Hewlett-Packard (HP), and the largest share, 22.3%, for business-use notebooks.
