Jabil Announces Planned Multi-Year $500 Million Investment in U.S. Manufacturing for Cloud and AI Data Center Infrastructure
This significant commitment will enable new large-scale manufacturing capabilities, capital investments, and workforce development.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - June 17, 2025 - Jabil Inc. (NYSE: JBL), a global leader in engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing solutions, today announced it intends to invest approximately $500 million over the next several years to expand its footprint in the Southeast United States to support cloud and AI data center infrastructure customers. This significant commitment will enable new large-scale manufacturing capabilities, capital investments, and workforce development.
Jabil is in the final stages of site selection and expects it to be operational by mid-calendar year 2026.
"To secure America's future in artificial intelligence, it's crucial that we build the hardware that powers AI innovation right here at home. Domestic manufacturing isn't just an economic priority; it's a matter of national security. We're proud to expand Jabil's U.S. factory network, scaling our capabilities to better support the growing needs of our data center customers," said Matt Crowley, Executive Vice President, Global Business Units.
This strategic investment builds on Jabil's recent acquisition of New Hampshire-based Mikros Technologies, a leading provider of liquid cooling and thermal management solutions. Mikros Technologies serves a wide range of industries, including AI data center infrastructure, energy storage, and semiconductor testing.
"This initiative is a key element of our long-term strategy to diversify our commercial portfolio and strengthen Jabil's presence in the U.S.," said CEO Mike Dastoor. "While the geopolitical landscape remains dynamic, our position as a U.S.-based company with a significant domestic footprint enables us to help the world's leading brands navigate
challenges with agility and resilience."
Based in St. Petersburg, Florida, Jabil has 30 sites across the United States, with proven experience and investments in automation, robotics, and process optimization. These facilities support demand for production at scale across industries.
