The Ponce Real Estate Group has been monitoring the industrial real estate market across the states, and it seems to have new life being breathed into it. Auto makers and other manufacturers are now looking to set up their manufacturing facilities within the US.
Johnson & Johnson is proud to announce a bold investment of over $55 billion, setting a new standard in domestic manufacturing excellence! Over the next four years, this initiative will establish four cutting-edge manufacturing facilities and expand existing sites, solidifying Johnson & Johnson's commitment to driving innovation and growth in the United States.
Leading the charge is a $2 billion state-of-the-art biologics manufacturing facility in Wilson, North Carolina. This advanced facility will create well-paying jobs—double the county's average salary—and produce groundbreaking medicines for cancer, immune-mediated, and neurological diseases. The Wilson development is projected to generate an impressive $3 billion economic impact across North Carolina in its first decade of operation.
This ambitious $55 billion investment marks a 25% increase in U.S. manufacturing commitments compared to the previous four years in which manufacturing was leaving the US. It will fuel an estimated $100 billion annual economic impact, making a significant contribution to America’s economy and healthcare innovation.
The North Carolina facility is just the beginning—three additional advanced manufacturing facilities are on the horizon, along with expansions at several existing sites. These investments highlight Johnson & Johnson’s dedication to delivering life-changing treatments in oncology, neuroscience, immunology, cardiovascular disease, and robotic surgery.
With over 830 life sciences companies already thriving in North Carolina, this dynamic region offers a robust infrastructure to support the life sciences industry. Johnson & Johnson is proud to strengthen its legacy as a leader in innovation and an active contributor to the U.S. economy, while continuing to support patients across America and around the globe.
We hope that this trend continues and will create tens of thousands of jobs here in the US as well as transforming lives, advancing innovation, and creating opportunity for generations to come!
