FANUC America plans to construct a new facility in Auburn Hills, MI that will be used for engineering, product development, manufacturing and warehousing.
“Robotics and automation are key drivers of manufacturing competitiveness,” said Mike Cicco, president & CEO, FANUC America. “We’re looking forward to expanding our facilities here in Oakland County to keep pace with the growing demand for automation.”
The new North Campus is slated to open fall 2019 with the company hodling a groundbreaking ceremony later this year. The $51 million expansion, expected to create 100 jobs, received a $1 million Michigan Business Development Program performance-based grant.
The Auburn Hills location was selected over a competing location in Illinois, and the city has offered a property tax abatement valued at $3,504,000 in support of the project.
