GE Appliances announced this week that it&#8217;s moving even more of its production from China to Kentucky, and investing nearly half-a-billion dollars.
The company is moving most of its washing machine production to Kentucky, spending $490 million in the process, and creating at least 800 full-time jobs. The move is expected to be completed by 2027.
&#8220;We are bringing laundry production to our global headquarters in Louisville because manufacturing in the U.S. is fundamental to our ‘zero-distance’ business strategy to make appliances as close as possible to our customers and consumers,&#8221; GE Appliances President and CEO Kevin Nolan <a href="https://pressroom.geappliances.com/news/ge-appliances-doubles-down-on-u-s-manufacturing-with-490-million-laundry-plant-investment-at-its-global-headquarters-in-louisville-kentucky">said</a> in a statement.
&#8220;This decision is our most recent product reshoring and aligns with the current economic and policy environment,&#8221; Nolan said, adding that the investment &#8220;positions&#8221; GE &#8220;to become the biggest American washer manufacturer.&#8221;
The announcement comes amid President Donald Trump using tariffs on a host of countries, including China, to help restore what he views as fair trade, American manufacturing, and also address national security issues, like illegal immigration and fentanyl.
Additionally, under Trump, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/11/cpi-inflation-may-2025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">inflation has cooled</a> and gas prices have hit a <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/summer-gas-prices-hit-lowest-level-4-years-despite-middle-east-tensions">four-year low</a>.
GE&#8217;s Appliance Park, a massive industrial complex located in Louisville, already employs around 8,000 workers, the company said. Additionally, GE has invested $3.5 billion in its U.S. manufacturing operations over the past ten years.
&#8220;This investment will move production of more than 15 models of front load washers to Building 2 at Appliance Park – bringing the total area of clothes care production to the equivalent of 33 football fields,&#8221; a statement from the company said.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, a Democrat, praised the move from GE.

“Today’s announcement further secures Louisville as the global headquarters of GE Appliances, a Haier company, and brings more world-class, unparalleled appliance manufacturing back to the United States,” he said in a statement on Thursday. 
“This new investment strengthens one of our vital Kentucky assets and underscores our state’s reputation as America’s destination of choice for advanced manufacturing and job creation,&#8221; he added.
A number of companies have committed to investing in the U.S. since Trump took office, including South Korean-based car manufacturer Hyundai, which is <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/president-trump-is-remaking-america-into-a-manufacturing-superpower/">investing</a> $21 billion in U.S. onshoring, including a $5.8 billion steel plant in Louisiana. Pharmaceutical giant Johnson &amp; Johnson, too, announced plans to invest $55 billion in U.S. manufacturing. And in February, tech company <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-manufacturing-domestic-tariffs/">Apple</a> committed to spending more than $500 billion on U.S. manufacturing capabilities over the next four years.
