\n$445 million investment will support global manufacturing of Lokelma<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

COPPELL, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AstraZeneca today announces the unveiling of its newly-expanded, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Coppell, Texas. The expansion project will double the production of Lokelma <\/i>for the benefit of patients in the United States and around the world.<\/p>\n

\nThe investment of $445 million to expand the facility follows the groundbreaking last week at AstraZeneca\u2019s manufacturing facility in Albemarle County, Virginia<\/a>. Both are part of AstraZeneca\u2019s $50 billion investment<\/a> in US R&D and manufacturing over the next five years that was announced in July 2025.<\/p>\n

\nJim Fox, Senior Vice President, Americas Supply Operations, AstraZeneca, said: \u201cOur manufacturing facility in Coppell serves as both a critical pillar in global healthcare and has played an important role in supporting the local workforce over the past 10 years. The expansion underscores our commitment to patients and support for Texas\u2019 long-term vision for scientific growth and innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nAstraZeneca\u2019s Coppell facility is the sole global manufacturing facility of Lokelma<\/i> to more than 50 countries around the world. The facility employs more than 250 people. Through the expansion and development of a new 9,000 square foot building, two novel manufacturing lines will be added along with enhancements to support drug substance and drug product laboratory testing, warehousing, additional manufacturing utilities and administrative space.<\/p>\n

\nAt an event marking the unveiling of the expanded facility, Learning Undefeated, an AstraZeneca STEM education partner, will also showcase their interactive educational mobile lab Breakout Box: Manufacturing Mission.<\/i> Designed to inspire the next generation of STEM leaders by providing an immersive experience for students to explore the world of high-paying and high-demand manufacturing careers, the mobile lab includes everything from welding to data analytics and robotics and will be available to local schools in Texas.<\/p>\n
