Kimberly-Clark announces $130M expansion in Mobile, Alabama

MOBILE, Alabama (From news reports) -- Kimberly-Clark has announced plans for a $130 million expansion of its Mobile facilities, adding a new production line to make hygiene products.

The project is expected to add 29 jobs at the facility, which consistently ranks among Mobile's largest industrial employers with more than 600 workers.

"This expansion represents a strategic investment in Kimberly-Clark's future and underscores our commitment to solving unmet consumer needs through innovation," said Tamera Fenske, chief supply chain officer at Kimberly-Clark. "Our Mobile facility exemplifies manufacturing excellence, powered by a team whose skill, dedication and passion deliver the essential products our consumers count on every day. This investment not only enhances our North American manufacturing capabilities but also deepens our longstanding partnership with the Mobile community. We're proud to grow our presence here and create additional opportunities that will benefit both our business and the region for years to come."

Calling Kimberly-Clark one of Mobile's "cornerstone employers," Mobile Chamber President and CEO Bradley Byrne said that the expansion "reflects the strength of our workforce and business climate," and that "continued innovation and growth at the Mobile facility mean long-term stability for hundreds of families and a clear signal that Mobile is a smart place to do business."

The new line is expected to open in 2027.

Kinberly-Clark, which recently transitioned from the New York Stock Exchange to Nasdaq, sells products in 175 countries, with brands including Huggies, Kleenex, Scott, Kotex, Cottonelle, Poise, Depend and others.

The company has been honored for sustainable, ethical and innovative business practices.
