Five manufacturers are expanding their production capabilities across the United States, creating thousands of jobs. JetZero has begun construction on an 8 million-square-foot campus in Greensboro, North Carolina, aimed at producing the Z4 aircraft, with an expected 14,500 jobs over the next decade. This $4.7 billion investment aligns with North Carolina's vision to become a global aerospace hub.
International Paper is also enhancing its operations with a new $225 million corrugated packaging facility in Brandon, Mississippi, set to begin operations in Q4 2027. This facility will bolster the company's manufacturing network and improve operational performance, transitioning employees from a nearby plant.
Additionally, Novartis has broken ground on a 46,000-square-foot site in Denton, Texas, for radioligand therapy manufacturing, expected to be operational by 2028. This facility is part of a broader $23 billion investment in U.S. research and manufacturing. Fibrosan is establishing a new facility in Cassopolis, Michigan, creating 35 jobs and enhancing local production capabilities.
