Record number of manufacturing jobs returning to America
Among other companies getting in on the emergent reshoring trend, Apple Inc. AAPL, +0.20% , for instance, has pledged a Made in the U.S.A. push through which it aims to produce Mac Pro personal computers on U.S. soil.
AND ITS NOT JUST APPLE:
CEO Jeff Immelt of GE has said the U.S., on a relative basis, has never been more competitive. For instance, he’s said it takes three hours or less to make a refrigerator, so the total cost can be lower to have it made domestically versus in China or Mexico when factoring in other costs including transportation.
“Our model suggests the U.S. can offer very competitive manufacturing options, especially given many rising cost variables overseas,” according to a Wal-Mart statement on the initiative. The company pointed to 500 “active initiatives” involving product categories as diverse as tires, bicycles, home textiles, toys and cookware.
Sixty thousand manufacturing jobs were added in the U.S. in 2014, versus 12,000 in 2003, either through so-called reshoring, in which American companies bring jobs back to the U.S., or foreign direct investment, in which foreign companies move production to the U.S., according to a study from the Reshoring Initiative. In contrast, as many as 50,000 jobs were “offshored” last year, a decline from about 150,000 in 2003.
