Hoping to support its logistics speed and sustainability goals, Lego Group has developed plans to open its first U.S. manufacturing plant.
The 1.7 million-square-foot factory, costing $1 billion, is set to open in Chesterfield County, south of Richmond, VA, in the second half of 2025, creating more than 1,760 jobs.
The site in Virginia was chosen in part for its access to the country’s transportation networks. The Danish toy manufacturer currently operates six factories worldwide. In the Americas, it also operates a factory in Monterrey, in northeastern Mexico, which is also being expanded to support growth in the U.S. market.
