(Reuters) -Carrier Global on Tuesday announced plans to invest $1 billion over five years in the United States, in response to President Donald Trump’s policies encouraging domestic production. Global firms are boosting their investments and presence in the U.S. after Trump’s policies have pushed companies across sectors, including Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Ford, to produce within the country and generate jobs. The additional headwind from Trump’s tariffs has also caused companies to rethink their supply chains. Carrier said the move would generate 4,000 jobs, as it aims to hire 1,000 U.S. service technicians, and train over 100,000 climate solutions service and sales professionals over the next five years. The additional investment will fund the expansion of existing facilities and construction of a new site to support production related to components of heat pumps and battery assemblies. Earlier this month, Carrier beat quarterly profit estimates and raised its 2025 forecast amid strong demand for heating and air conditioning products. During President Trump’s first term, Carrier and its then-parent company, United Technologies Corp (NYSE:RTX), abandoned plans to close a plant and move 1,400 jobs to Mexico. In exchange, the company received $7 million in state tax breaks to stay in Indiana.

By Paolo Laudani and Isabel Demetz (Reuters) - Barry Callebaut is planning to increase its U.S.-based production to fend off effects of the "disruptive environment" in North America and stay close to its customers, the Swiss chocolate maker's chief executive said on Thursday. "We have one ... facility that we will scale out to about 100,000 tons in the United States that will allow us to actually serve customers better also in the U.S.," CEO Peter Feld said during a post-earnings call with analysts. He also said that the cocoa processor, which supplies chocolate for Unilever (LON:ULVR)'s soon-to-be-spun-off Magnum ice creams and Nestle (NSE:NEST)'s KitKat bars, was doubling down on investments in its plant in Brantford, Canada. Companies with operations in the United States are grappling with on-again, off-again tariff announcements from President Donald Trump, who in a stunning reversal on Wednesday paused most of his hefty duties but left a 10% blanket tariff on almost all U.S. imports. In March, chocolate maker Lindt said it would supply chocolate made in Europe to Canada to avoid Canadian tariffs imposed to counter the higher U.S. customs duties. North America made up more than one-tenth of Barry Callebaut's global sales volume measured in metric tons in the 2023/24 financial year. "We believe that we've seen the worst quarter behind us," Feld said after the world's biggest chocolatier lowered its annual volume guidance as part of its half-year update, which sent its shares down to twelve-year lows.

Investing.com -- Swiss specialty chemicals firm Clariant AG (SIX:CLN) is shifting some of its adsorbent production from Mexico to the US to sidestep tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump, according to the company’s CEO Conrad Keijzer. Clariant AG plans to move the production of materials destined for the US market to an already existing plant in Quincy, Florida. Meanwhile, the company will continue to operate its Puebla, Mexico facility for the local market, Keijzer said on Monday. This decision comes in the wake of Mexico facing potential tariffs from Trump. The President has already enforced tariffs on steel and aluminum and issued an order last week to impose levies on all cars not manufactured in the US. Approximately 10% of Clariant’s global group sales can be attributed to the automotive sector. Former Shell Plc CEO Ben van Beurden, who is expected to be elected as Clariant’s new chairman on Tuesday, said that the challenges currently facing the industry necessitate "important strategic choices." He also suggested that the industry is likely to consolidate in the future. Van Beurden acknowledged the significant strain on the industry but also pointed out the numerous opportunities that exist.
