Apple has announced a $30 billion agreement with Broadcom to manufacture advanced chips in the United States, marking one of its biggest investments yet in domestic semiconductor production. The multi-year deal is aimed at expanding Apple’s US supply chain while reducing dependence on overseas manufacturing.
Under the partnership, Broadcom will produce a range of high-performance chips at its American facilities. These components are expected to power future Apple devices, including iPhones, Macs, iPads and other products. The agreement supports Apple’s broader strategy of securing a stable supply of critical semiconductors while investing in advanced manufacturing within the country.
The announcement comes as global technology companies continue to diversify supply chains following recent disruptions caused by geopolitical tensions and chip shortages. By sourcing more components from the US, Apple hopes to improve supply reliability and strengthen long-term manufacturing resilience.
The investment also aligns with the US government’s push to boost domestic semiconductor production. Washington has encouraged companies to expand local manufacturing through incentives aimed at reducing reliance on foreign chip suppliers and strengthening national technological capabilities.
Apple said the partnership with Broadcom will support innovation, create high-skilled jobs and help develop next-generation semiconductor technologies. The company has increasingly focused on designing its own chips, and the latest agreement is expected to further strengthen its hardware ecosystem.
Broadcom, one of Apple’s key suppliers, is expected to play a central role in manufacturing specialised components that support wireless connectivity and other advanced technologies used across Apple’s product lineup. The company said the investment would expand its manufacturing capabilities and reinforce its long-standing relationship with Apple.
