Supply Chain Diversification

GENERAL ELECTRIC CO · 2026-11-04 · Importance 31 · Surprise 42

GE Appliances, a Haier company, plans to use U.S.-made Texas Instruments microcontrollers, Wi-Fi connectivity solutions, and analog components in its next generation of connected appliances. The components are expected to supply one-third of the chips used in products made at GE Appliances’ new laundry plant in Louisville, Kentucky, where production is slated to begin in 2027. The partnership nearly doubles GE Appliances’ spending with TI and strengthens its domestic component supply chain.
