The Californian company plans to eventually manufacture all computers for sale in Japan in factories in Akishima near Tokyo.For that, HP plans to hire 50% more workers in Akishima, boosting the number of employees there to 450. According to the Nikkei, labor costs in Japan are about four times higher than in China. But with this move, HP apparently wants to increase efficiency, be closer to the market, stand out with a "made-in-Japan" moniker, and push down delivery times especially to Japanese business customers.
