Global manufacturing giant Jabil plans to open a massive new production facility in Marshall County, representing a $119 million corporate investment that will create approximately 2,200 jobs North Mississippi, officials announced Tuesday, July 7.
The St. Petersburg, Florida-based company is purchasing and renovating an existing 1.5 million-square-foot facility to support customers in the booming data center infrastructure market.
The expansion comes just nine months after Jabil first entered the Marshall County landscape. In September 2025, the company’s healthcare division announced a separate $70 million investment over three years to establish X-ray sterilization capabilities in the area.
“Investments like this are why Mississippi has one of the hottest job markets in America,” Gov. Tate Reeves said in a statement, noting the quick turnaround between Jabil’s local projects. “Jabil would not be making this investment unless the company was confident that Mississippi and her people can deliver results.”
The Mississippi Development Authority is assisting the project through the Mississippi Flexible Tax Incentive, known as the MFLEX program. Additional support is being provided by Marshall County officials, AccelerateMS and the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Large scale facility is key
State economic leaders emphasized that the scale of the facility positions Mississippi to capitalize on the rapid expansion of digital infrastructure.
“A 1.5-million-square-foot operation producing data center infrastructure isn’t a marginal project,” said Bill Cork, MDA executive director. “It’s proof we are in the game for advanced manufacturing tied to global demand.”
Jabil operates in more than 25 countries with a workforce of 140,000 employees, providing engineering, supply chain and manufacturing solutions across the robotics, automotive, healthcare and energy sectors.
Matt Crowley, Jabil’s executive vice president of global business units for intelligent infrastructure, said domestic capacity is becoming increasingly vital for the industry.
“Companies across the data center ecosystem are looking to build fast, and they’re increasingly looking to build in the United States,” Crowley said.
A timeline for the completion of the renovations and the start of hiring has not yet been disclosed.

Mississippi Bar wants Jody Owens suspended from law after guilty plea
Hinds County DA Jody Owens pleads guilty in Jackson MS bribery scandal
Hinds County DA Jody Owens pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge related to the Jackson bribery scandal. He also resigned as district attorney.
The Mississippi Supreme Court received a formal complaint Monday, July 6, from the Mississippi Bar requesting that former Hinds County District Attorney Jody E. Owens II be immediately suspended from the practice of law.
The compliant comes after Owens resigned from his position and pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy on June 29 inside the Thad Cochran United States Courthouse in connection with a Jackson bribery scandal.
A judge set Owens’ sentencing for 9 a.m. Oct. 15.
According to the complaint, the crime for which Owens entered a plea of guilty is a felony thus the court should “immediately suspend (Owens) from the practice of law.”
The Bar requested that Owens be immediately suspended from practice in the State of Mississippi “with all costs and expenses associated with the filing and litigation of this Formal Complaint being taxed against (Owens).”
The Bar also requested other such relief as the court deems proper.
Owens was charged in federal court as part of a broader public corruption investigation involving former Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba and former Jackson City Councilman Aaron Banks.
A week after Owens pleaded guilty, Lumumba and Banks followed suit. Lumumba and Banks each pleaded guilty July 6 to one count of conspiracy related to the scandal.
Lumumba’s sentencing hearing is set for 10 a.m. Oct. 15. Banks is set to be sentenced at 1:15 p.m. Oct. 15.
Similar to Owens, Lumumba and Banks consistently denied wrongdoing after being indicted in 2024 and was scheduled to stand trial in mid-July.
Former Ward 2 Councilwoman Angelique Lee and local insurance specialist Sherik Marve’ Smith, an associate of Owens, also previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery in 2024. Their sentencing dates have been delayed indefinitely.
