Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs)

The vast majority of laptops on the market (94% in 2011) are manufactured by a small handful of Taiwan-based Original Design Manufacturers (ODM), although their production bases are located mostly in mainland China.
Major relationships include:

• Quanta sells to (among others) HP, Lenovo, Apple, Acer, Toshiba, Dell, Sony, Fujitsu and NEC

• Wistron (former manufacturing & design division of Acer) sells to Dell, Acer, Lenovo and HP

• Pegatron sells to Asus, Toshiba, Apple, Dell and Acer
• Foxconn sells to Asus, Dell, HP and Apple

ODM Laptop Units sold and Market Shares

There is a discrepancy between the 2009 numbers due to the various sources cited; i.e. the units sold by all ODMs add up to 144.3 million laptops, which is much more than the given total of 125 million laptops. The market share percentages currently refer to those 144.3 million total.
