So they did. And now that Sanyo plant in Arkansas is the world's largest
producer of TVs.

Are you sure about that? How many have they been producing? Consider
the following article:

It sounds like the report of TTE's volume is based on multiple plants,
although it's hard to tell. Wal-Mart says that they alone have bought 50
million TV's from the Sanyo plant, as of sometime in 2005, and Sanyo sells
(Sanyo and Fisher brands) to other retailers.

But some of the figures conflict, so I don't know if Wal-Mart's claim is
right. In any case, it's one plant in Arkansas, not Sanyo's worldwide
operations.
