<div class="ExternalClass533CEB8FC88A435FA041A458CBA816D0">PHOENIX, Ariz.— Foxlink, a global leader in electronics manufacturing, has selected Phoenix as the site for a major expansion to its green energy manufacturing footprint.By investing approximately $20 million in wholly-owned subsidiary Foxlink Arizona, the company has created over 100 new jobs in the Phoenix area. The new jobs will allow the company to continue increasing capacity at its 168,897-square-foot facility in Phoenix, the first Foxlink manufacturing site in the United States. Adding high-value jobs in green energy will support the local economy and keep next-generation innovation in Arizona."During my visit to Taiwan last summer, our delegation had great discussions with Foxlink about why Phoenix is the ideal place for their continued growth. I'm excited to see them officially commit to expanding in our city," Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego said. “Phoenix is a thriving center of talent and advancement poised to support Foxlink as they create great new jobs and develop the technology that will power a greener, brighter future."Since Foxlink Arizona began work at the Phoenix site in <a href="https://www.foxlink.com/web/en/foxlink-announced-its-plan-to-build-and-operate-a-factory-in-the-united-stated-and-expand-investment-in-green-energy-industry/">February 2022</a>, it has transitioned from assembling traditional circuit boards to manufacturing green energy solutions. Today, the Phoenix site produces a range of cutting-edge products, including charging stations and energy storage units. Looking ahead, the Phoenix site will also support manufacturing efforts for other US-based affiliates across the Foxlink network.Commenting on the announcement, Freddy Kuo, Chairman of the Board, Luminys Systems Corp., and Executive Office Special Assistant at Foxlink, said, “When looking to expand our manufacturing footprint in the United States, Foxlink needed a talent-dense hub known for innovation. That is exactly what we have found in Phoenix. We are proud to be part of the local community and create new jobs in Arizona as we continue to advance the leading edge of green technology."As a member of the Phoenix community, Foxlink Arizona is proud to participate in state and local initiatives to transition from gasoline to electric school buses, leveraging green energy to reduce carbon emissions. Working with local government, Foxlink Arizona is offering a comprehensive range of vehicle-to-grid integration solutions—including electric school buses, charging stations, and energy storage units—to help reduce carbon emissions and energy costs. In the weeks and months ahead, Foxlink Arizona will continue to bring additional green energy solutions to the market and expand into new areas of manufacturing to provide U.S. customers with the innovative and efficient products they need.Beyond the investment in Arizona, Foxlink continues to expand its nationwide business investments.
