From Moradabad to Apple’s Global Stage: Sabih Khan Becomes the New COO of Apple
Apple’s new Chief Operating Officer (COO) Sabih Khan—an Indian-origin executive originally from Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh—has been appointed to oversee iPhone manufacturing, especially in India. After over 30 years at Apple, he succeeds Jeff Williams in a strategic move by CEO Tim Cook. This milestone highlights Apple’s commitment to continuing iPhone production in India amid global trade pressures and ambitions of sustainable growth. Born in Moradabad in 1966, Khan later lived in Singapore and then moved to the U.S. for higher education, earning degrees in mechanical engineering and economics from Tufts University and a master’s from RPI. He joined Apple in 1995 and climbed the ranks—from procurement to Senior Vice President of Operations—playing crucial roles in green manufacturing, logistics, and global supply chain management. Tim Cook praised him as “a brilliant strategist” and trusted his leadership to shape Apple’s future. Apple expects India’s share in its global iPhone production to grow significantly under his leadership.
