About ABB in the United States

ABB is investing in the United States

The U.S. represents ABB’s largest single growth market, which is why we’ve invested more than $14 billion here since 2010. In addition to plant expansions, ABB has dramatically expanded its US operations with acquisitions including Baldor (motors), Thomas & Betts (low-voltage products), and General Electric Industrial Solutions (electrification products).

This “ABB Across America” series highlights our growth strategy across the U.S. and adds an exclamation point to the phrase “ABB is here to stay!”

With around 18,000 employees, ABB has nearly 40 manufacturing, distribution, and operational facilities across 20 US states including nine major R&D centers. ABB has a presence in all 50 states. Today, approximately 80 percent of the products ABB sells in the US are manufactured in the US.
