Taiwan-Based LITEON Plans McKinney, Texas, Headquarters-Manufacturing Operations

07/15/2026
Taiwan-based electronics manufacturer LITEON plans to establish operations in McKinney, Texas. The $919 million project is expected to create more than 600 jobs.

The company’s new 650,000-square-foot advanced manufacturing facility, located at the Core5 Logistics Center, will produce AI power and infrastructure-related solutions.

“LITEON's expansion in Texas represents a historic milestone for our company,” said Tom Soong, Chairman of LITEON. “McKinney is a community that shares our values of hard work, innovation, and opportunity, and we are honored to be part of its future. The strong support from the State of Texas and the City of McKinney has made this investment possible, and we are deeply grateful for their partnership. Together, we are investing in Texas communities, and we look forward to growing alongside this great state as we continue advancing next-generation technologies.”

To support the project, the State of Texas awarded LITEON a $3.5 million Texas Enterprise Fund grant and a $100,000 Veteran Created Job Bonus.

“Texas is where the world invests and innovates,” noted Governor Greg Abbott. “We congratulate LITEON on choosing Texas as home for their new North American headquarters for its advanced manufacturing facility. This major expansion will create hundreds of good-paying jobs in McKinney and further strengthen Texas’ leadership in advanced electronics manufacturing, research, and development.”

Lite-On Technology Corporation develops and produces power supplies, automotive electronics, cloud computing infrastructure, optical components, industrial automation products, and information technology hardware. The company specializes in electronics design, manufacturing, research and development, and supply chain services for technology customers.

“The infrastructure powering tomorrow’s advanced technology is being built in Texas, and McKinney is proud to be part of that story,” added Michael Kowski, President and CEO of the McKinney Economic Development Corporation. “LITEON is exactly the kind of global leader that will strengthen our position in advanced manufacturing, innovation, and next-generation technology. Their decision to invest in our community sends a clear signal to companies everywhere that McKinney is a serious destination for the industries shaping the future.”
