New U.S. Manufacturing Operations Announced in February 2025
Posted by IndustrySelect on Wednesday, February 26, 2025
On the tails of a strong January, U.S. manufacturers kept up the momentum, announcing a wide range of new manufacturing investments in February 2025, from Apple’s historic investment in U.S. facilities to Lily’s plans to more than double its domestic footprint, expanding its U.S. facilities to the tune of $1.7 billion. From new automotive enterprises to solar projects to new food and beverage facilities, here are the most exciting new operations announced in February.
First up, Apple made waves this last week of February, announcing a historic investment of more than $500 billion in the United States over the next four years to bolster American innovation, create jobs, and expand the company’s manufacturing and research capabilities. This investment will create 20,000 new jobs, focusing on roles in engineering and artificial intelligence.
As part of this broader investment, Apple has announced plans to open a 250,000-square-foot AI server manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas. The new factory, expected to begin operations in 2026, will produce AI servers to support Apple Intelligence, the company’s AI-driven personal assistant for iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers. “We are bullish on the future of American innovation, and we’re proud to build on our long-standing U.S. investments with this $500 billion commitment to our country’s future,” said Apple CEO Tim Cook.
