Die Produktionsstätten mit den meisten Mitarbeitern weltweit [OC]

Data source: Each employee count is derived from Veridion’s business and location-based data. Veridion aggregates information from multiple sources (company websites, news articles, public employment filings, government registries) and infers each plant’s headcount by cross-checking against related signals such as building footprint, industry type, known production capacity at the site, and supply chain disclosures.

Methodology: I ranked the top 20 plants by estimated headcount at a single physical site, not company-wide totals. Where a company operates a tightly clustered campus under a single name (e.g., Foxconn Longhua, Samsung Pyeongtaek), the contiguous facilities are treated as a single entry. Counts are rounded to the nearest thousand; all figures are estimates with a margin of uncertainty.

Tools: Python for data processing, Claude for visualization
