Redmi smartphones and electronics

Redmi is a globally recognized electronics brand that originated in China. Originally launched in 2013 as a budget-friendly line under Xiaomi, it was officially spun off as an independent sub-brand in 2019 to focus on the entry-level and mid-range market segments.

In terms of manufacturing, Redmi utilizes a diversified global supply chain. While high-end research, design, and initial production often occur at Xiaomi's smart factories in Beijing, China, a significant portion of the assembly is handled by contract manufacturers like Foxconn. Notably, by 2026, the brand has achieved near 100% local manufacturing for the Indian market, reflecting a strategic shift toward domestic production in major hubs outside of China. This global approach allows the brand to maintain its 'ultimate price-performance ratio' while navigating local trade regulations and logistics costs.
