Apple announced a new $100 billion commitment to America, a significant acceleration of its U.S. investment that now totals $600 billion over the next four years. This announcement includes the ambitious new American Manufacturing Program (AMP), dedicated to bringing even more of Apple’s supply chain and advanced manufacturing to the U.S. Through AMP, Apple will increase its investment across America and incentivize global companies to manufacture even more critical components in the United States.
“Today, we’re proud to increase our investments across the United States to $600 billion over four years and launch our new American Manufacturing Program,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “This includes new and expanded work with 10 companies across America. They produce components that are used in Apple products sold all over the world, and we’re grateful to the President for his support.”
Apple parts and components manufactured in the U.S. ship to customers around the world; in fact, roughly two-thirds of the components made in the U.S. are exported to customers outside the U.S.
Today, Apple partners with thousands of suppliers across all 50 states, supporting more than 450,000 supplier and partner jobs. In the next four years, Apple plans to directly hire 20,000 people in the U.S. — the vast majority focused on R&D, silicon engineering, software development, and AI and machine learning.
Apple American Manufacturing Program
Apple is working with its suppliers to accelerate manufacturing in the U.S. through the new American Manufacturing Program. The first AMP partners include Corning, Coherent, GlobalWafers America (GWA), Applied Materials, Texas Instruments (TI), Samsung, GlobalFoundries, Amkor, and Broadcom. This builds on Apple’s July commitment to buy American-made rare earth magnets from MP Materials.
The American Manufacturing Program will help fund a major expansion of Apple’s long-standing partnership with Corning, bringing the world’s largest and most advanced smartphone glass production line to a factory in Harrodsburg, Kentucky. Soon, every iPhone and Apple Watch sold around the world will be built with Kentucky-made cover glass. The two companies will also open a new Apple-Corning Innovation Center in Kentucky.
Apple has also entered into a new multiyear agreement with Coherent, which produces the VCSEL lasers that enable Face ID on iPhone and iPad devices. This work takes place at Coherent’s Sherman, Texas, facility.
In July, Apple also committed to buying American-made rare earth magnets from MP Materials — the only fully integrated rare earth producer in the U.S. These magnets will become part of Apple devices shipped globally. The two companies will also establish a rare earth recycling line in Mountain Pass, California.
Apple Expands End-to-End American Silicon Supply Chain
Apple is leading the creation of an end-to-end silicon supply chain in the U.S. This supply chain is on track to produce more than 19 billion chips for Apple products in 2025, including from TSMC in Arizona, Apple’s first and largest customer.
Apple is partnering with GlobalWafers America in Sherman, Texas, to produce advanced wafers for use in U.S.-based semiconductor fabs like TSMC in Phoenix and Texas Instruments in Sherman. GWA uses silicon from U.S. sources, including Corning’s Hemlock Semiconductor.
Apple is also partnering with Applied Materials to boost production of semiconductor equipment at its Austin, Texas, hub. Apple and TI are expanding their partnership for advanced process technologies in Lehi, Utah, and Sherman, Texas.
Apple is investing in Amkor’s new chip packaging and test facility in Arizona, which will package Apple silicon from the nearby TSMC fab.
New and Expanded Facilities Across the U.S.
Earlier this year, construction began in Houston on Apple’s new factory supporting production of advanced servers. The 250,000-square-foot facility will begin mass production in 2026.
