US technology company Apple is to spend more than $500 billion in the US over the next four years, including on a new factory in Texas and a manufacturing academy.
That is according to a new announcement from the firm, which plans to expand its teams and facilities in Michigan, Texas, California, Arizona, Iowa, Oregon, North Carolina, and Washington.
Part of the package of investments will include a new 250,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas, to produce servers that support the company鈥檚 鈥減ersonal intelligence system鈥�, Apple Intelligence. The new facility is expected to open in 2026.
Apple will also double its US Advanced Manufacturing Fund and create an academy in Detroit, Michigan to train the next generation of US manufacturers, it said.
And it has made a multibillion-dollar commitment to produce advanced silicon in TSMC鈥檚 Fab 21 facility in Arizona. Mass production of Apple chips started there last month.
Underlining its importance to the US manufacturing industry at a time when US President Donald Trump is adopting a more protectionist stance, Apple also highlighted how it was committed to data centres and corporate facilities across the country.
It added that its suppliers manufacture silicon in 24 factories across 12 states, including Arizona, Colorado, Oregon, and Utah.
