Foxconn and the state government of Tamil Nadu in India today inaugurated a new residential complex in Vallam Vadagal Industrial Park. The complex provides a sustainable living community for thousands of employees of the world’s largest manufacturing service provider.
Built by the State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu (SIPCOT), the complex is a first-of-its-kind initiative reflecting the state government’s commitment to attracting foreign investment while meeting investor needs. Designed as a women-only residential complex, it prioritizes employee well-being, safety, and diversity.
“This residential complex is a testament to our commitment to our employees and to India,” said Foxconn Chairman Young Liu. “It represents a significant step forward in our operations and contributes to the overall development of the region.”
Located 20 minutes from Foxconn’s mega manufacturing site, the multi-building complex offers amenities such as a laundromat, gym, recreational areas, and a cafeteria. It is the first industrial housing complex built by SIPCOT within an industrial park.
Foxconn’s India operations have achieved significant sustainability milestones, including Platinum-level UL2799 certification for Zero Waste to Landfill, construction of a zero liquid discharge sewage treatment plant, and implementation of energy-saving measures. The company has also completed third-party audits under the ERSA 3.0 electronics industry standard, demonstrating its commitment to environmental responsibility.
