Cook stated that Apple supports approximately 450,000 American jobs through its suppliers and partners across all 50 states. He also noted the company has reached new agreements with ten U.S.-based firms to manufacture Apple component parts.

“I’m proud to say that Apple is leading the creation of an end-to-end silicon supply chain right here in America, from design to equipment to wafer production to fabrication to packaging,” Cook said.

He highlighted the company’s relationship with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), explaining that Apple played a key role in bringing the microchip giant to Phoenix, Arizona during Trump’s first term.

By committing to be TSMC’s largest customer, Apple helped enable the domestic production of millions of chips for its products.

Additionally, Cook noted that Apple is partnering with Kentucky-based glassmaker Corning to build what he described as “the world’s largest and most advanced smartphone glass production line.”

“Every single new iPhone and every single new Apple Watch sold anywhere in the world will contain cover glass made in Kentucky,” he said.

Cook also discussed Apple’s artificial intelligence infrastructure investments currently underway in various states, reaffirming the company’s belief in the American economy and workforce.

“We believe deeply in the promise of this great nation,” Cook said.

“Thank you all, and thank you President Trump for putting American innovation and American jobs front and center.”

During the White House meeting, Cook presented President Trump with a plaque crafted from the newly developed Kentucky glass. According to Cook, the plaque was designed by a former U.S. Marine Corps corporal who now works at Apple.

The base of the plaque was sourced from Utah and made of 24-carat gold.

President Trump praised Apple’s renewed focus on American manufacturing, saying the announcement shows that Apple is “coming home.”

He noted that Apple has long manufactured products in China, but the tariff policies enacted under his administration have incentivized U.S. companies to return operations to American soil.

The announcement is part of Apple’s ongoing shift toward domestic production and investment amid growing concerns about reliance on foreign supply chains and an increased emphasis on American-based manufacturing.

The investigation into the impact of tariffs and domestic incentives on corporate investment continues, but Apple’s latest commitment signals a clear trend among large technology firms responding to economic policy shifts under the Trump administration.
