Apple has recently made a substantial move to increase iPhone component manufacturing within the United States. The company has announced the inclusion of four key businesses – Bosch, Cirrus Logic, TDK, and Qnity Electronics – as part of its American Production Program, or AMP. This initiative represents a considerable investment, with Apple committing $400 million to these new partnerships by the year 2030.
The four companies will be responsible for producing parts and materials specifically for Apple products, bolstering the program initially launched in August 2025. This strategic shift aims to strengthen Apple’s supply chain and reduce reliance on overseas production. TDK, a long-standing partner with Apple spanning over 30 years, will notably manufacture sensors in the US for the first time.
These sensors are crucial for stabilizing the iPhone’s camera during photography and video capture. Bosch is collaborating with TSMC to establish a facility in Washington state, dedicated to producing the chips that power the iphone. This expanded production capacity underscores Apple’s commitment to domestic manufacturing and supports its broader goals for innovation and product quality.
The overall effect is a significant enhancement to Apple’s production capabilities within the United States.
