Apple will invest more than $500 billion in the U.S. over the next four years, expanding its workforce, manufacturing capabilities, and research initiatives across multiple states. The company plans to build a new factory in Texas, double its U.S. Advanced Manufacturing Fund to $10 billion, and accelerate investments in artificial intelligence (AI) and silicon engineering. These commitments aim to support thousands of jobs and strengthen the domestic supply chain.
The investment package includes the construction of a 250,000-square-foot (23,225-square-meter) server manufacturing facility in Houston, set to open in 2026. Apple also plans to expand its data centers in North Carolina, Iowa, Oregon, Arizona, and Nevada. Additionally, the company will establish a manufacturing academy in Detroit to train workers in AI and smart manufacturing. Apple remains one of the largest U.S. taxpayers, having paid $19 billion in 2024 alone.
