Maquiladora. It is not limited to products made from US parts, but the term refers to all manufacturing and assembly plants built with foreign capital. These include other countries such as Japan (Sony, Honda), Germany (Volkswagen, ThyssenKrupp) or France (Bombardier).

"Maquiladora" plants assemble products from parts coming from other countries. One example is General Motors, which sends to Mexico motor vehicle parts, which are then assembled into full vehicles and sent back to the United States for the consumer market.
Maquiladora.
It was the exact opposite. Mexico has allowed foreign factories in Mexico, especially along the US-Mexico border. These are known as maquiladoras, which assemble finished products from imported parts. Some examples include electronic and household items, with parts coming from Taiwan, the United States or Japan, which are then assembled in say, iPhones and then sold back to the American and European markets.
Factories that just assemble parts into finished products for export are called maquiladoras.Not all factories that export are known as such, however. For example, steel-mills produce steel which is then exported to other countries, such as the United States, China or India. These are not maquiladoras.
Maquiladoras are factories in Mexico that operate in a 'trade free' zone. They import parts or key components of products from other countries. When the components arrive, the workers at the maquiladoras assemble the products so they can be exported to global markets.
Everything. From cell phones and plasma TVs to motor vehicles to aircraft parts, maquiladora plants assemble many different kinds of products in Mexico.
Yes. Several manufacturers have taken advantage of the cheaper production costs and negligible tariffs for assembled items in Mexico with American components. These plants, known as "maquiladoras" assemble many kinds of products, from household items to motor vehicles to aircraft parts.
Mexico was and is an original country in North America. This is in modern times, when the political subdivision of a continent is a country. Parts of Mexico, as defined by Spanish conquest are now parts of the United States. New Mexico was once part of Mexico, as was Arizona and California. Mexico itself, is not a part of the United States, but parts of the United States were once Mexico.
Electric and electronic equipment, automobile and aircraft parts, textiles and clothing are the main types of maquiladoras that exist in Mexico.
