Apple is set to open a new AI server manufacturing plant in Texas as part of a sweeping $500 billion investment in the U.S. over the next four years. The 250,000-square-foot facility in Houston will produce servers for Apple Intelligence, the AI assistant powering iPhones, iPads, and Mac computers. Operations are slated to begin in 2026.

Alongside the new factory, Apple plans to hire 20,000 employees nationwide, focusing on research and development, silicon engineering, software development, and AI innovation.

“We are optimistic about the future of American innovation and proud to strengthen our U.S. investments with this $500 billion commitment,” said Apple CEO Tim Cook.

The announcement comes after Cook’s recent meeting with President Donald Trump, amid ongoing pressure from the administration over Apple’s manufacturing ties to China. President Donald Trump praised the move, linking it to confidence in the administration’s economic policies.

Earlier this month, Trump introduced additional tariffs on Chinese imports, complicating supply chain strategies for companies like Apple.

Beyond the Texas facility, Apple’s investment includes expanded R&D initiatives, doubling its Advanced Manufacturing Fund to $10 billion, opening a manufacturing academy in Michigan, and supporting Apple TV+ productions in 20 states.

Additionally, Apple announced plans to expand its data center operations in Arizona, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina, and Oregon.

The tech giant joins other major firms increasing U.S. investments, reflecting a broader trend of reshoring technology infrastructure and manufacturing.
