Lenovo expands US AI server manufacturing in North Carolina to meet surging demand

Lenovo, the Chinese PC and server giant, has expanded its Whitsett, North Carolina manufacturing facility, doubling its footprint to 890,000 square feet to meet growing demand for US-made AI servers. The company invested millions, adding production lines capable of assembling 1,400 server nodes per day. Executives cited customer demand for trusted, domestically produced AI infrastructure as the key driver. The facility currently employs 400 line workers with plans to scale to 1,000. Lenovo leverages its nearby R&D hub in Morrisville and local universities for talent. The expansion took nine months from empty warehouse to full production, including 20 MW of power capacity from Duke Energy.
