Major Investment Grows Local Industry

Good news keeps rolling in for Memphis and its neighbors. ABB Group, a global leader in electrification and automation based in Switzerland, announced an additional $35 million investment in its Memphis-area facilities. This move brings ABB’s total recent commitment to the region to an impressive $155 million, strengthening manufacturing in both Senatobia, Mississippi and Selmer, Tennessee.

Meeting Growing Demand

ABB’s expanded investment is all about meeting increased national demand for electrical components—a sector where Memphis has quietly become a powerhouse. From the banks of the Mississippi River to the corridors of the I-40, Memphis has long been a hub for logistics and industry, and this news only cements its place as the economic engine of the Mid-South.

The expanded facilities mean more jobs and new opportunities for skilled workers. While specific numbers haven’t been released, local leaders are excited about the potential ripple effect on Memphis neighborhoods—from Whitehaven to Collierville—and beyond. This is especially good news for area families who benefit from local careers and economic stability.

A Bright Future for Memphis Manufacturing

With a storied past in manufacturing and distribution—think of the mighty cotton warehouses and Blues City boxcars—Memphis continues to draw companies that want to grow in America’s heartland. ABB’s confidence in the Memphis area is a vote of trust for our skilled workforce, strong infrastructure, and business-friendly climate.
