Johnson & Johnson Launches $55 Billion U.S. Manufacturing and Research Expansion

The initiative includes four new facilities, starting with a groundbreaking in North Carolina, and aims to boost innovation, job creation, and economic impact.

Johnson & Johnson announced a $55 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing, research, and technology over the next four years, a 25% increase from the previous four years.
The investment includes the construction of four new manufacturing facilities, with the first groundbreaking in Wilson, North Carolina, and expansions of existing sites.
The new North Carolina facility is expected to create 5,000 construction jobs, over 500 permanent positions, and generate a $3 billion economic impact for the state over 10 years.
Funds will support advancements in robotics, drug discovery, and treatments for critical diseases such as cancer and neurological conditions.
This commitment aligns with broader corporate trends of increasing U.S. manufacturing investments, influenced by policy incentives like the 2017 Tax Cuts & Jobs Act and potential pharmaceutical tariffs.
