Mars to Invest $2 Billion More in U.S. Manufacturing Operations
Mars is investing billions into its U.S. factories in an effort to increase capacity and scale innovation across its portfolio of brands, which includes Snickers, Dove, M&Ms, Royal Canin and others.
This latest funding builds on a $6 billion investment that it allocated toward U.S.-based manufacturing over the past five years to meet growing demand.
Ninety-four percent of the company’s products are sold and produced locally in the country, according to Mars.
The $2 billion addition will be spent on infrastructure and operations through the end of 2026.
“This investment is about building a stronger, more resilient business in the U.S. — one that can grow with our consumers, deliver for our partners and create lasting economic impact in the communities where we operate,” said Claus Aagaard, CFO, in a statement.
