AMERICA’S INDUSTRIAL INVESTMENT MAPPED ANDVERIFIED.MAPPED AND VERIFIED.

Mesabi Metallics announced a $15 billion integrated steelmaking complex planned for Lee County, Iowa. The company expects at least 1,750 full-time operating jobs. The facility would combine direct-reduced iron and electric arc furnace steelmaking, supplied by the company's Minnesota iron ore operation. First steel production is targeted for 2030, according to Reuters. AFT excludes construction jobs and the separate $3 billion Minnesota investment.

Amazon announced on September 24, 2026 that it will invest more than $100 million to establish a new advanced manufacturing operation in an existing 585,000-square-foot facility at 1175 Collins Road in Greenwood, Indiana, which Amazon plans to purchase and equip (this is not construction of a new building). The facility is expected to create 300 skilled manufacturing and engineering positions by the end of 2028. Planned capabilities described by the sources include fabrication, robotic welding, automated powder coating, and assembly; the plant will supply Amazon's fulfillment centers and robotics network across North America, though the sources do not identify specific products (AFT does not claim the facility manufactures robots). This is a manufacturing operation, not a fulfillment center. AFT records the conservative $100 million floor of the "more than $100 million" announced investment and the firm 300-job figure, and deliberately excludes Amazon's broader Indiana and U.S. spending totals, its Massachusetts robot factories, and its separate Austin, Texas robotics project. Because neither source confirms the purchase has closed or work has begun, the project is classified as Announced, with an expected launch in 2028.

Pirelli announced on September 22, 2026 an approximately €1 billion (~$1.2 billion) multi-year expansion of its existing tire manufacturing plant at 100 Pirelli Drive in Rome, Georgia (Floyd County) — an expansion of the current facility, not a new plant. The two-phase project adds robotized MIRS tire production in Phase 1, with capacity ramping from 2028, and a fully automated premium-tire production facility in Phase 2, together bringing the plant's annual capacity to approximately 6 million car tires by 2033. Georgia's announcement states the expansion will create 1,000 new permanent jobs, with most hiring beginning in 2029; AFT records the 1,000 net-new figure and deliberately excludes Pirelli's 234 existing Georgia employees. Expansion work is planned to begin in 2027 with full operations projected for 2033, so the project is classified as Announced. AFT counts only this Rome plant expansion and excludes any other elements of Pirelli's broader U.S. investment plan.

The Okonite Company announced a new approximately 552,000-square-foot high-voltage cable manufacturing plant on its existing property at 2276 Rowesville Road in Orangeburg, Orangeburg County, South Carolina. The $400 million project is expected to create 105 permanent jobs. Construction is expected to begin in Q4 2026 and take roughly two to three years, so the expected opening (approximately 2029) is uncertain. This is a new plant on existing company property and is not merged with any unrelated earlier expansion.

Hanwha Defense USA (HDUSA) announced a $2.2 billion capital investment to establish the Hanwha Advanced Manufacturing Campus on 1,065 acres at the U.S. Army Pine Bluff Arsenal in Arkansas — described as the first munitions manufacturing facility of its kind in the United States, producing 155mm propellant charges and base bleed units. The Phase 1 administrative headquarters is already open; full construction runs to 2030 with operations beginning in 2031. Sources describe "nearly 400 jobs over a seven-year period, with an average wage exceeding $50 per hour," but because that figure is imprecise and phased, AFT records jobs_created as undisclosed (null) per methodology rather than committing to a specific permanent-jobs count.

Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories is purchasing a large industrial building in Post Falls to manufacture electronic devices that protect, monitor and control critical infrastructure, including power grid protection equipment. SEL expects the facility to initially create approximately 250 manufacturing careers and to be fully operational in 2027. SEL's president has put the investment at $150 million, covering the building, infrastructure upgrades, equipment and other setup costs. This project is separate from SEL's Nampa facility.

Hitachi Energy — the power-grid subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd. — announced on September 15, 2026 a $528 million investment to build a new transformer manufacturing facility on a 45-acre site at the Copiah County Industrial Park in Gallman, Mississippi, about 6.5 miles from its existing Crystal Springs facility. The Mississippi Development Authority figure covers the new factory, manufacturing equipment, and infrastructure improvements, and the project is expected to create 654 net-new permanent jobs. AFT records MDA's firm 654 net-new figure (not Hitachi's less specific "over 700 jobs" wording) and deliberately excludes the 475 people already employed at Crystal Springs. Transformer production will transition to Gallman when the new plant is complete, with production expected in 2029; the Crystal Springs building will remain in use for warehousing, training, or other operational needs and is not closing. AFT counts only the $528 million assigned to the Gallman site and excludes the broader ~$1.5 billion Hitachi U.S. manufacturing expansion program as well as its investments in Virginia, Tennessee, and Pennsylvania. Construction is expected later in 2026 but has not been confirmed as started, so the project is classified as Announced.

Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories announced more than $150 million in investment to establish electronic-device manufacturing in an existing 103,000-square-foot building in Nampa, Idaho. The investment covers the building and manufacturing equipment. The facility will produce devices that protect, monitor and control critical infrastructure, including power grids, and is initially expected to create approximately 250 manufacturing jobs. Operations are expected in 2027. AFT records the conservative $150 million investment floor and 250 announced jobs. This project is separate from SEL's Boise, Post Falls and other manufacturing expansions.

Wiwynn announced more than $1.6 billion in facility-specific investment to establish server-system and rack manufacturing and integration operations in Socorro, Texas, with nearly 1,000 new advanced-manufacturing jobs expected by end of 2027. Amazon serves as the anchor customer for the facility.

Suniva's September 8, 2026 SEC 8-K release updated the facility investment for its Laurens County, South Carolina solar cell plant to "approximately $600 million" (up from an April 2026 estimate of $350 million) and confirmed "564 new advanced manufacturing jobs." The plant is a fit-out of an existing 621,468-square-foot building where the shell is already complete, and it will add "4.5 GW of annual monocrystalline silicon solar cell capacity," coming online in late 2027 with a full production ramp in 2028. AFT records only the $600 million facility investment and deliberately excludes Suniva's separate $835 million capital raise, which is corporate financing rather than facility-specific capital.

New electrical-enclosure manufacturing facility for Eaton's Fibrebond business.

Hybrid-EV motor production expansion across Astemo's two Berea plants, recorded as one project. AFT records phase one only; the conditional $379M / 282-job full scope is not included.

SpaceX announced Starbase Louisiana, a planned $100 billion spaceport campus in the Pecan Island area of Vermilion Parish. At full buildout, the campus is expected to include five launch complexes with two launch pads each, propellant production and storage, power generation, vehicle-processing facilities, and supporting launch infrastructure. Louisiana Economic Development reports more than 3,000 direct new jobs over 10 years; AFT records the conservative figure of 3,000 direct permanent jobs only and excludes the state’s indirect, construction, and potential longer-term workforce estimates. Construction is expected to begin in 2027. Reuters reports a first Starship launch target of 2029, while LED describes initial operations coming online in 2030; both timing statements are preserved as a source conflict.

Industrial Electric Mfg. (IEM) announced a $200 million manufacturing campus at the Brooks site in San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas, producing power-distribution systems, panels, switchgear, and switchboards. The project comprises two approximately 500,000-square-foot buildings developed as phases of one project (not separate records): the first building is expected operational in 2028 and the second in 2030. AFT conservatively records 448 permanent jobs tied to the committed figure, not the broader 3,000 company target.

Genentech, a wholly owned Roche Group member, plans a new device fill-finish manufacturing facility at its 75-acre Hillsboro Technical Operations campus at 4625 NE Brookwood Parkway in Washington County, Oregon. Announced August 20, 2026, the approximately $750 million project will double the site and add end-to-end filling for advanced drug-delivery devices, including pre-filled syringes and autoinjectors, serving Roche and Genentech medicines. It is expected to create 250 high-wage permanent manufacturing jobs and approximately 200 construction jobs, with commercial operations expected in 2031. AFT records the 250 permanent manufacturing jobs and excludes construction employment, existing campus employment, distribution operations and the unallocated Roche/Genentech $50 billion national commitment.

Amazon announced plans for a new Austin facility that will manufacture robotics systems supporting its operations network. The company expects the project to create 300–500 manufacturing and engineering jobs; AFT records the conservative floor of 300 permanent jobs. Amazon described the development only as multi-billion-dollar, so AFT leaves the facility-specific investment undisclosed rather than inferring a numeric amount.

Bristol Myers Squibb's approximately $2.3 billion, roughly 600,000-square-foot modular and multi-modal manufacturing campus at Generation Park in Houston, Texas. The campus is designed to produce multiple medicine types — small molecules, biologics and antibody-drug conjugates — supporting drug product and finished-goods manufacturing from late development through launch, with a modular architecture BMS can reconfigure as its pipeline evolves. BMS announced the site selection on August 10, 2026 and says the campus will create nearly 500 skilled jobs initially, spanning operations technicians, production specialists, maintenance and engineering, quality control and assurance, and site leadership; AFT records 489 permanent jobs, the exact figure in the JETI incentive application, consistent with that "nearly 500" wording. No construction start or opening date has been disclosed, so the record stays in Planning without an assigned date. Explicitly excluded to prevent double counting and non-qualifying inflation: the approximately 2,000 construction and other indirect jobs expected between 2027 and 2030; BMS's broader $40 billion five-year U.S. commitment, which spans research and development, technology and domestic manufacturing rather than this facility; BMS's approximately $10 billion 2025 research-and-development spend; industry-wide research and employment-multiplier claims; and BMS's existing Texas contract-manufacturing and clinical-trial-site relationships, which carry no new capital or permanent operating jobs. Eli Lilly's separately tracked active-pharmaceutical-ingredient facility sits in the same 4,300-acre Generation Park development but is an unrelated project by a different company.

BeOne Medicines announced a discrete $300 million Princeton West expansion at its Hopewell Township campus, adding a three-story 145,000-square-foot small-molecule pharmaceutical manufacturing facility and 120 new full-time jobs. The facility will support tablet manufacturing and complement existing campus biologics operations. AFT records the planned 2029 operational timing at year precision only. The $300 million is the additional facility-specific expansion and excludes the original $800 million campus investment and any combined-campus figure exceeding $1 billion.
