The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) approved the expansion plan for Foxconn’s facility in Racine County, the company said in a statement. The investment will primarily focus on the AI server business, which Foxconn said would help strengthen domestic U.S. supply chains amid rising demand for data infrastructure.
“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.
Hsiao added that Wisconsin currently accounts for nearly a quarter of Foxconn’s U.S. workforce, and the new investment is expected to double the company’s presence in the state by 2030. The project is projected to create 1,374 new jobs, according to the company.
Foxconn, formally known as Hon Hai Technology Group, has already invested more than $2 billion in Wisconsin over recent years, covering payroll, capital expenditure, and taxes. The company said the latest expansion reflects its ongoing commitment to growing operations in the United States and responding to the increasing demand for advanced data and AI infrastructure.
The Racine County facility is central to Foxconn’s U.S. operations, and the planned expansion underscores the company’s strategy to support domestic technology manufacturing and supply chain resilience amid global semiconductor and electronics demand pressures.
