Reshoring

The US plan to bring back manufacturing jobs is on a slow but steady course. US companies have committed to $1.2 trillion between January and September 2025. In the first half of 2025 foreign countries invested $150 billion in US manufacturing facilities with many times that projected for the future. Companies want to invest in the US because that is where the market is. The US with four percent of the world’s population produces 26% of the world’s GDP. The US also wants to bring home products for national defense reasons along with safety, like pharmaceuticals. This also minimizes the concerns about supply chains and with shorter supply chains companies can change directions to meet market demands more quickly and efficiently.
