Apple committed more than $30 billion to Broadcom for US-made chips — its biggest American Manufacturing Program deal — yielding 15B+ chips and running through 2031.
TL;DR — Apple committed more than $30 billion to Broadcom for US-made chips — the largest deal yet under its American Manufacturing Program — expected to produce over 15 billion American-made chips and extending the partnership through 2031.
Apple just made its biggest bet yet on American chipmaking. On July 8, 2026, it committed more than $30 billion to Broadcom for US-made components.
The deal
Apple committed more than $30 billion to Broadcom in a multiyear agreement — the largest to date under Apple’s American Manufacturing Program — expected to yield more than 15 billion US-made chips, chiefly RF/FBAR filters and wireless connectivity components. Broadcom will invest $1.5 billion to expand and modernize its Fort Collins, Colorado facility, and the partnership now runs through 2031.

What they said
"Apple and Broadcom have a long history together, and this new phase of our partnership further accelerates our commitment to American manufacturing and innovation." — Tim Cook, CEO, Apple
Why it matters
- Reshoring at scale. A $30B+ commitment materially shifts where Apple’s RF and wireless parts get made.
- Deeper Broadcom dependence. Even as Apple designs more of its own silicon, this locks in Broadcom through 2031.
- Political tailwind. It advances Apple’s $600 billion US investment pledge at a moment of intense focus on domestic chipmaking.
