A $150 million Fort Worth Siemens plant is the German company’s latest investment in $500 million commitment to U.S. manufacturing.
The Munich, Germany-based company confirmed its plans Friday morning. The new Siemens plant at 7200 Harris Legacy Drive will focus on the production of low-voltage switchboards and switchgear. The facility will help power American data centers and critical infrastructure and produce electrical equipment, the company said. Including Fort Worth, Siemens will invest more than $500 million in U.S. manufacturing for critical infrastructure this year.
The company will create up to 715 full-time jobs by the end of 2026, with nearly one-quarter of jobs coming to Fort Worth by the end of 2024. The jobs will pay an average salary of $63,000, according to city incentive records. Busch, as well as Barbara Humpton, CEO of Siemens USA, are in Fort Worth on Friday morning for the announcement at the plant site. Also expected to attend are representatives of Gov. Greg Abbott’s office and a U.S. Department of Commerce executive.
