Siemens Healthineers Boosts US Presence with $150M Investment

Siemens Healthineers, a global leader in medical technology, announced a $150 million investment to expand its US operations, reinforcing its commitment to the American healthcare market, which accounts for 36% of its global revenue. This move aligns with a broader trend of companies reshoring manufacturing to the US amid tariff pressures and supply chain challenges.

Key initiatives include relocating the manufacturing of Varian, its radiation oncology subsidiary, from Baja, Mexico, to Palo Alto, California, creating approximately 50 new jobs. This shift aims to streamline the supply chain and enhance responsiveness to demand for Varian’s radiotherapy solutions. Additionally, Siemens Healthineers is opening mega supply depots in Dayton, New Jersey, and Manteca, California, boosting parts availability by nearly a third for greater delivery flexibility.

The company is also investing $141 million in a 60,000-square-foot Experience Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, as part of The Pearl innovation district. This facility will support healthcare providers in adopting digital and transformative care solutions. “North Carolina’s skilled workforce makes it an ideal hub for innovation,” said Governor Josh Stein.

John Kowal, president of Siemens Healthineers Americas, stated, “These investments underscore our long-term commitment to growing alongside the American economy.” With 17,000 US employees across 18 locations and $900 million in annual R&D spending, Siemens Healthineers continues to strengthen its role in advancing US healthcare.
