Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) announced that ArcelorMittal Building Solutions will establish its North American headquarters and a new manufacturing facility in Macon-Bibb County.
The initial investment will bring roughly $57 million and 70 new jobs to Macon-Bibb County, with plans for an additional $50 million in investment and 70 more jobs over the next several years.
Gov. Kemp attributed this achievement to Georgia’s growing reputation as the No. 1 state for business and only sees more developments like this to come. He also described this development as incredibly timely, since the manufacturing demand continues to grow in the state.
“As Georgia continues to break economic records, ArcelorMittal Building Solutions’ new manufacturing facility comes at the right time to help meet growing demand across the state,” said Gov. Kemp. “Their decision to establish the North American headquarters in Macon-Bibb is also further proof that Georgia is the best place for business and opportunity, well beyond our state borders.”
The New Facility
ArcelorMittal Building Solutions designs and manufactures high-performance building envelope systems used to insulate and protect warehouses, factories, data centers, and commercial buildings.
The company’s insulated panels combine structural strength, thermal efficiency, and fast installation, helping customers reduce construction time and energy consumption.
ArcelorMittal Building Solutions also serves a broad range of construction markets through more than 50 manufacturing and office locations worldwide.
The new facility will build on ArcelorMittal’s longstanding presence in the United States, which includes steelmaking, manufacturing, research and development, and support locations that employ more than 3,200 people across nine states.
It will also include a new training facility, which will be located at the Airport South site in Macon. Construction is expected to begin in the second half of 2026, with operations to commence in the second half of 2027, subject to customary permitting and approvals.
As Georgia continues to break economic records, we're excited to welcome @ArcelorMittal Building Solutions' new North American HQ & manufacturing facility to Macon-Bibb County! This historic investment comes at the right time to help meet growing demand across our state.…
