Prince George County Jabil plant could bring 352 jobs by fall 2026
Prince George County is slated to get a new Jabil plant in fall 2026, with officials expecting about 352 jobs and state-backed workforce training.
Prince George County is slated to gain a new Jabil manufacturing facility at Crosspointe Logistics Center, with state officials saying the plant is scheduled to open in fall 2026 and add about 352 jobs.
The project matters locally because it adds another advanced-manufacturing employer to the county’s industrial base. It also gives residents, jobseekers, and nearby contractors a clearer signal of where hiring and supplier opportunities may emerge if the schedule holds.
What the plant will make
According to the Governor of Virginia’s announcement, Jabil will produce power distribution systems and solutions for Siemens. Evertiq described the output more specifically as medium-voltage switchgear and related integrated power distribution work. That points to a specialized industrial operation rather than a general warehouse or consumer-products facility.
For Prince George County, that distinction matters. A plant tied to electrical infrastructure and industrial equipment can bring a different mix of jobs than a retail or distribution project, including production, maintenance, logistics, and support roles that often require training before a site opens.
State incentives and workforce support
Officials said Virginia approved a $700,000 Opportunity Fund grant to help support Jabil’s $6.1 million investment. The package also includes Virginia Talent Accelerator training support, which is designed to help employers build a workforce pipeline before production starts.
That combination suggests the project is being treated as a targeted recruitment win, not just a one-off building announcement. The immediate public return will depend on whether the facility opens on time and how quickly the expected jobs are filled, but the state clearly sees the plant as part of its advanced-manufacturing strategy.
What residents should watch next
For residents and workers, the next questions are practical: when hiring begins, what skills the company will look for, and whether local workers can move into the new jobs with short-term training. Nearby businesses may also watch for service, contracting, and logistics demand tied to the plant.
For Prince George County, the bigger picture is simple. If the project stays on schedule, the county will add a specialized manufacturing operation in fall 2026, and with it a new cluster of jobs, training needs, and possible supply-chain activity tied to the broader power-infrastructure market.
