Automotive Supplier Building $225M McAllen Plant

Valeo, an automotive technology manufacturer, broke ground on a manufacturing facility in McAllen, Texas.

The company is investing $225 million over the next five years on a 337,000 square-foot facility that will create up to 500 new jobs in the region. The project represents one of the largest industrial investments in the region’s history and is aligned with Valeo’s long-term growth strategy in North America. Production will begin in late 2027.

The plant supports production tied to General Motors and reflects a broader shift toward software-defined vehicles, where a single high-powered computing system replaces dozens of smaller onboard units.

McAllen is home to nearly 150,000 residents. The broader McAllen-Edinburg-Mission metropolitan area has a population exceeding 914,000.
