New Albany Assembly, Packaging and Distribution Facility (Initial Phase)

Amgen's biologics assembly, packaging and final-product distribution facility in New Albany, Ohio — a 270,000 sq ft plant with Amgen's most advanced assembly and final-product packaging capabilities for U.S.-distributed medicines. Announced June 22, 2021 at $365M with 400 full-time jobs; opened February 26, 2024. The separately announced April 2025 $900M New Albany expansion and Amgen's more-than-$1.4B / about-750-job Central Ohio site rollup are excluded from this record to prevent double counting.

Why it matters

The pharmaceuticals context.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers are committing billions to new U.S. production capacity for active ingredients, injectable medicines, biologics and other high-demand treatments. North Carolina and Indiana remain major centers of investment, while new facilities are being planned across the South. The current project pipeline includes both large greenfield campuses and major expansions of established production sites.
