Key Takeaways:
- Texas Dominates the Reshoring Boom: With over 40,000 new manufacturing jobs, Texas leads the nation in reshored employment—thanks to massive investments from companies like Samsung and Tesla.
- Red States Reap the Rewards: Business-friendly states like South Carolina, Mississippi, and New Mexico are outperforming blue-state counterparts by attracting tens of thousands of jobs through pro-growth policies.
- High-Tech and Transportation Fuel Growth: The reshoring surge is led by industries like electronics, transportation, and electrical equipment—signaling a strong shift toward rebuilding America’s industrial strength and reducing dependence on foreign supply chains.
America’s manufacturing comeback is in full swing—and this time, it’s red, white, and re-shored. As companies ditch overseas dependency and bring jobs back home, more than 2.3 million manufacturing positions are expected to land on U.S. soil by the end of 2025. But make no mistake: this wave of economic patriotism isn’t splashing evenly across all 50 states.
Texas is running the table, hauling in over 40,200 re-shored jobs—a jaw-dropping 23% of the national total. With mega-deals from Samsung ($65B) and Tesla ($5.5B), plus infrastructure investments topping $4.9B, the Lone Star State is cementing itself as the crown jewel of American industrial revival.
Not far behind are South Carolina (24,800 jobs), Mississippi (12,100), and New Mexico (9,800)—proving that states with low taxes, business-friendly leadership, and right-to-work laws are reaping the rewards.
It’s no surprise the biggest booms are coming from computer and electronics, transportation, and electrical equipment—industries long strangled by foreign reliance. Walmart, Apple, and GE Aerospace are just a few of the heavyweights reshaping the landscape.
Bottom line? While Washington debates ESG nonsense and hands out subsidies like candy, the real story is happening in states that earned it—by putting freedom, innovation, and entrepreneurship first. The reshoring renaissance is real, and smart investors—and smart states—are capitalizing. The rest? They’re watching from the sidelines.
