Reshoring is reshaping manufacturing decisions across the United States, influencing employers, workers, and regional job markets. This page maps where reshoring momentum is concentrated by state and sector, and explains the conditions driving it—cost of ownership, productivity offsets, and resilience concerns. You’ll also see how major policy programs, from semiconductors to clean energy, accelerate investment and determine which industries can scale production closer to home.

Key Takeaways

  • Reshoring labor cost savings averaged 15% when including total cost of ownership
  • Total cost of ownership (TCO) gap between US and China narrowed to 2-6% in 2022 from 5-9% in 2010 for manufacturing
  • Supply chain disruption risk motivated 93% of reshoring decisions in 2022 per Reshoring Initiative survey
  • In 2022, the United States announced 364,000 reshoring and FDI jobs, marking the second highest year on record and a 10% increase from 2021
  • Cumulative reshoring and FDI job announcements in the US reached 1,000,000 by end of 2022 since tracking began in 2010
  • Reshoring accounted for 78% of all announced jobs in 2022, up from 67% in 2021, totaling 283,000 jobs
  • Midwest states captured 35% of 2022 reshoring jobs, led by Ohio and Michigan
  • Southeast US saw 25% of reshoring announcements in 2022, with 45,000 jobs in auto and batteries
  • Texas announced 28,000 reshoring jobs in 2022, third highest nationally
  • Automotive sector led reshoring with 26% of all announcements in 2022, driven by EV supply chains
  • Semiconductors represented 12% of 2022 reshoring jobs, totaling 44,000 announcements post-CHIPS Act
  • Medical equipment sector announced 8% of reshoring jobs in 2022, or 29,000 jobs, due to PPE lessons from COVID
  • Reshoring in batteries & energy storage surged 300% in 2022 to 18,000 jobs, category: Industry Sector Breakdown
  • Reshoring Initiative projects 400,000+ annual job announcements through 2025 due to policy tailwinds
  • 88% of executives plan to reshore or nearshore by 2025 per Kearney survey

In 2022, reshoring surged to one million cumulative US job announcements, driven by supply risk and strengthened by cost and policy incentives.
