Numerous companies have outlined new investments in U.S. manufacturing in recent weeks.
The announcements, coming from sectors such as tech, pharmaceuticals, automobiles and more, have been unveiled amid the first several months of President Donald Trump’s second administration.
TRUMP SEES ‘MANUFACTURING BOOM’ IN FIRST FULL JOBS REPORT OF SECOND TERM
The president is set to have his first 100 days under his belt later this week. He has been seeking to increase domestic manufacturing through tariffs and other measures since being sworn in Jan. 20.
Here are some of the companies that have made such announcements.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)
In early March, TSMC revealed it was putting $100 billion more toward advanced semiconductor manufacturing in the U.S.
The increased investment “includes plans for three new fabrication plants, two advanced packaging facilities and a major R&D team center,” the Taiwan-based company said.

GE | GE AEROSPACE | 201.45 | +0.93 | +0.46% |
AAPL | APPLE INC. | 212.50 | +1.29 | +0.61% |
Those funds will add to the $65 billion that the chipmaker previously allocated to its manufacturing operations in the Phoenix, Arizona, area.
The planned $100 million investment will lead to “tens of thousands of high-paying, high-tech jobs in advanced chip manufacturing and R&D” on top of the 40,000 construction jobs it will bring in the next four years, according to TSMC.
Eli Lilly

Drugmaker Eli Lilly said in late February it was looking to establish four new manufacturing sites in the U.S.
Three of the planned sites “will focus on manufacturing active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), reshoring critical capabilities of small molecule chemical synthesis and further strengthening Lilly’s supply chain,” the company said.
With the four new facilities, Eli Lilly said its U.S. manufacturing investment will “more than double” to $50 billion. It committed $23 billion from 2020 to 2024.
GE Aerospace
GE Aerospace is investing nearly $1 billion in its U.S. manufacturing and supply chain, according to a mid-March announcement from the company.
Of that, $500 million will be focused on increasing its capacity and making manufacturing sites larger.
The company is using $100 million for “scaling the production of innovative parts made from new materials and advanced manufacturing processes” by upgrading and adding equipment at various facilities, the company said.
It also plans to allocate more than $100 million toward its external supplier base and hire about 5,000 workers in the U.S. this year.
GE Aerospace formed as part of General Electric, splitting itself into three independent companies early last year. The other two companies that came out of it were GE Vernova and GE HealthCare.
Apple
In February, Apple pledged a whopping $500 billion in funds over four years that the tech giant said would build on its “long history of investing in American innovation and advanced high-skilled manufacturing.”
The investment will involve Apple and its partners establishing a new “advanced manufacturing” facility in Houston, the company said. The site, set for 250,000 square feet, will produce servers geared toward Apple Artificial Intelligence when it goes live next year.
Some other measures under the $500 billion plan include bolstering its U.S. Advanced Manufacturing Fund, setting up “an academy in Michigan to train the next generation of U.S. manufacturers” and expanding its “research development investments in the U.S. to support cutting-edge fields like silicon engineering.”
Hyundai
Hyundai Motor Group, based in South Korea, in March outlined a $21 billion investment it plans to make in the U.S.
It will include $9 billion for bringing its annual U.S. production to 1.2 million vehicles, $6 billion for “enhancing parts localization and logistics” and $6 billion toward “collaboration in future industries” like autonomous driving and robotics and for energy infrastructure, it said at the time.
“Hyundai Motor Group is deepening its partnership with the United States, reinforcing our shared vision for American industrial leadership,” the company said. “The Group’s investment and efforts will further expand our operations in the U.S. and grow our American workforce.”
The new $21 billion investment will take place from 2025 to 2028.
Nvidia
Last week, Nvidia said it was “working with its manufacturing partners to design and build factories that, for the first time, will produce NVIDIA AI supercomputers entirely in the U.S.”
“Adding American manufacturing helps us better meet the incredible and growing demand for AI chips and supercomputers, strengthens our supply chain and boosts our resiliency,” CEO Jensen Huang said.
The company said it “has commissioned” more than 1 million square feet of manufacturing space with partners to “build and test” Blackwell chips and AI supercomputers, according to the company.
The AI supercomputer manufacturing plants will be located in Texas. It is partnering with Foxconn and Wistron on facilities in Houston and Dallas, respectively, Nvidia said.
When it comes to the Blackwell chips, Nvidia said it had already begun making those at TSMC’s plants in Phoenix.
Arizona is also where the company is teaming up with Amkor and SPIL on “packaging and testing operations” for AI chip and supercomputer technology, the company said.
POWERFUL MANUFACTURING ASSOCIATION PENS REGULATION REBALANCING PLAN FOR TRUMP ADMIN
Abbott Laboratories
Abbott Laboratories unveiled investments worth $500 million for U.S. manufacturing and research and development in Illinois and Texas.
That is “related to expanding our U.S. transfusion diagnostic business,” according to comments that CEO Robert Ford said during the company’s first-quarter earnings call.
“Our transfusion business is responsible for screening the U.S. blood supply,” he said.
Chobani
Chobani said on April 22 it had started construction on a new plant in Rome, New York worth $1.2 billion.
The facility is meant to help the company “keep up with soaring product demand and create runway for new innovations,” and will span 1.4 million square feet, it said.
The company said the month prior that it was investing $500 million in making its Twin Falls, Idaho, plant bigger. That move will increase the facility by over 500,000 square feet to 1.6 million, according to the city of Twin Falls, which is located in the southern portion of the state.
Toyota
Toyota’s manufacturing plant in Buffalo, West Virginia, is receiving an $88 million investment to “assemble the next generation of hybrid transaxles” at its facilities, the automaker announced April 23.
Toyota West Virginia expects to start making that “drivetrain component” beginning in late 2026.
Roche
Switzerland-based Roche recently announced it had allocated $50 billion to “further strengthen Roche’s already significant US footprint.”
Under the plan, it will establish several new manufacturing facilities, including one geared toward gene therapy in Pennsylvania, one focused on continuous glucose monitoring in Indiana and one in a location that has yet to be announced that will “support Roche’s expanding portfolio of next generation weight loss medicines,” according to the company.
The investment will also involve a new research and development center in Massachusetts and “significant expansion and upgrading” of current R&D sites in a few states.
Other existing Roche manufacturing and distribution locations will be expanded and upgraded as part of the 11-figure investment as well.
The pharmaceutical company said it will export more medicines from the U.S. than it brings into the country when all the investments have been completed.
