Foxconn has received regulatory approval for a $569 million expansion of its operations in Racine County, Wisconsin, reinforcing the company’s role in the rapidly growing U.S. AI server manufacturing sector. The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) signed off on the new investment, which the company says will directly support rising demand for AI infrastructure across the United States.
The world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer, formally known as Hon Hai Technology Group, said the expansion will significantly scale its AI server production capabilities and strengthen domestic supply chains.
“As the demand for more data infrastructure continues to rise, Foxconn will keep responding to our customers’ needs with flexibility and at scale in the United States,” said Jerry Hsiao, Foxconn’s chief product officer.
Wisconsin remains a strategic anchor for Foxconn’s U.S. operations. The company reported that the state accounts for nearly 25% of its U.S. workforce, and the new investment is expected to double its presence by 2030, adding 1,374 new jobs.
Foxconn noted it has already invested more than $2 billion in Wisconsin through payroll, capital expenditures, and taxes. The latest approval marks a renewed push to elevate the state’s role in the advanced electronics and AI manufacturing ecosystem, aligning with broader national efforts to expand domestic production capacity for critical technologies.
