John Deere Doubles Down on U.S. Manufacturing with $20 Billion Investment
John Deere Doubles Down on U.S. Manufacturing with $20 Billion Investment
John Deere announced plans to invest $20 billion in U.S. manufacturing over the next decade, emphasizing its long-term commitment to innovation and growth in the U.S.
Calling the investment a “powerful signal,” the company aims to reinforce its role in supporting farmers and workers. “We’re committed to delivering value through advanced products and world-class manufacturing,” said John May, chairman and CEO.” This investment strengthens our position here in the U.S. and ensures we remain globally competitive.”
With more than 30,000 employees spread across 60 facilities in 16 states, John Deere’s footprint in the U.S. is already significant. Locations like its engineering hub in Austin and regional parts center in Dallas stand to benefit from the influx of funding, though the company has yet to reveal exactly where the money will go.
This announcement comes after a challenging year marked by 16 rounds of layoffs and declining sales, driven by a softer farm economy. Adding fuel to speculation, some production shifts to Mexico drew political heat earlier this year. Learn more about this topic here.
