Under the deal, Broadcom will produce more than 15 billion chips in the United States, expand its Colorado facility by $1.5 billion, and develop custom wireless and ASIC silicon for future Apple products through 2031. The agreement also forms part of Apple's $600 billion US investment plan to strengthen domestic semiconductor manufacturing and supply chains.
Apple Deepens Broadcom Partnership
Apple announced a major expansion of its partnership with Broadcom through a new multi-year agreement valued at more than $30 billion. This is the company's largest manufacturing commitment in the United States to date.
As part of the agreement, Broadcom will manufacture more than 15 billion chips in the United States over the coming years. The project also includes a $1.5 billion expansion of Broadcom's manufacturing facility in Fort Collins, Colorado, which will increase production capacity for custom silicon used across multiple generations of Apple products. Although Apple has not shared when the additional manufacturing capacity will become operational, the investment is still a big step in building a stronger US-based semiconductor supply chain.
Press release from Apple
Broadcom supplied Apple with connectivity components for many years, but the new agreement expands the partnership. Under the deal, Broadcom will manufacture custom wireless components that make it possible for Apple devices to connect to cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth networks.
In addition to this, Broadcom recently revealed in a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that it signed long-term agreements with Apple to develop and supply custom application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) silicon products through 2031. ASIC chips are designed for specialized tasks and are becoming important as artificial intelligence applications require more efficient and powerful hardware.
The agreement forms part of Apple's strategy to increase investment in American manufacturing. In 2025, the company unveiled a four-year, $600 billion investment plan focused on expanding production and innovation across the United States. The Broadcom partnership is the largest commitment announced under that initiative so far.

Apple said the partnership supports its work with the US government and American businesses to create an end-to-end domestic silicon supply chain. The company believes increasing local manufacturing will improve supply chain resilience while also supporting technological innovation and creating new economic opportunities in the United States.
Apple CEO Tim Cook described the components produced at Broadcom's Colorado facility as essential to delivering the performance and reliable connectivity that customers expect from Apple devices. He also thanked President Donald Trump and his administration for supporting the project.
Broadcom President and CEO Hock Tan welcomed the agreement, and stated that Apple's long-term commitment will allow the company to expand its manufacturing operations in Fort Collins. The investment is expected to strengthen Broadcom's position as one of Apple's key semiconductor suppliers. It will certainly also help meet the growing demand for advanced custom silicon used in future Apple products.
