Wistron selects AllianceTexas for $761 million supercomputer project

Published on September 03, 2025

Wistron, one of the world's largest electronics manufacturers, recently announced plans to establish two AI supercomputing facilities at AllianceTexas in Fort Worth. This major investment firmly positions Fort Worth as a key player in the future of advanced technology manufacturing and the boarder reshoring movement, bringing critical manufacturing, logistics and innovation back to the U.S.

Wistron's new facilities will be located in Hillwood's AllianceTexas, a 27,000-acre master- planned, mixed-use development in north Fort Worth. The project represents a total investment of $761 million and will create more than 800 full-time jobs.

"As Wistron continues to expand its AI-related product capabilities and align with our strategic roadmap, establishing manufacturing operations in the United States is a critical step in meeting the needs of our customers and advancing our global vision. After a thorough evaluation of key factors such as talent availability, robust logistics infrastructure, and a vibrant industrial ecosystem, Fort Worth, Texas, emerged as the optimal choice," said Jackie Lai, senior vice president of global manufacturing for American and European operations for Wistron.

The site at 14601 Mobility Way will feature renovations to a 766,994-square-foot building, with an investment of more than $181 million allocated for land acquisition, factory purchase and real property improvements. The project's primary site, 15200 Heritage Parkway, will undergo renovations to a 324,598-square-foot building.

The investment at this location includes more than $580 million allocated for land acquisition, factory purchase, real property improvements and business personal property. Both sites are expected to be operational by early 2026.

What they're saying

"It's Go-Time in Fort Worth, and this investment from Wistron, which will create significant job growth and economic impact in our city, is just more proof," said Mayor Mattie Parker. "Fort Worth is already at the forefront of aviation, energy and logistics, and we are now positioned to lead in both AI and the future of advanced manufacturing as well."

"What an amazing moment for the booming Fort Worth economy," said Robert Allen, Fort Worth Economic Development Partnership president and CEO. "Wistron looked at sites all over the country. In the end, the company decided that Fort Worth is the place to be. And these two new locations not only will create jobs but also help make Fort Worth a leader in AI. The future of manufacturing is going to be built right here in Fort Worth."

"Wistron's $761 million investment and creation of over 800 new jobs marks a pivotal milestone for Denton County," said Judge Andy Eads. "This project strengthens our role in the rapidly expanding semiconductor supply chain and brings tremendous economic opportunity to our region. We're proud to support Wistron's growth and welcome the innovation and high-quality jobs they bring to North Texas."

"AllianceTexas is proud to welcome Wistron to what is rapidly emerging as North Texas' next- generation manufacturing and data-services corridor," said Ross Perot Jr., chairman of Hillwood and the Perot Companies. "Wistron's decision arrives at an opportune moment when reshoring is redefining America's industrial future, with AllianceTexas at the forefront of this movement. With a skilled and growing workforce available and backed by strong support from the City of Fort Worth, Denton County, the State of Texas and our private-sector partners, Wistron will find the support and resources it needs to succeed. We look forward to the economic impact and innovation this project will bring."
"This is an important moment in the industry, as a top global manufacturer in today's leading sector is establishing operations in what many consider the 'gold standard' of premier industrial park, positioned for decades of success," said Trey Fricke, commercial real estate managing principal for Lee & Associates. "Wistron is an amazing company, and I am so excited to see their hard work come together at these selected sites."
