        On June 27, Global Wafer announced that it will build a new 12-inch semiconductor wafer fab in Sherman, Texas (USA).
        The new plant will be built in phases according to the number of long-term customer contracts, and equipment will be moved in one after another. Upon completion of all projects, the maximum capacity will be 1.2 million wafers per month, and the capacity will be opened in 2025.
        Currently, the global semiconductor wafer market is highly concentrated, with leading wafer manufacturers monopolizing more than 90% of the global market share, dominated by Asian companies such as Shin-Etsu, SUMCO, GlobalWafers, Siltronic, and SK Siltron. The U.S. semiconductor industry is highly dependent on imported semiconductor wafers.
        In recent years, TSMC, Microchip, Intel, Samsung, Texas Instruments and other major international manufacturers have announced the expansion of production in the United States, and the demand for semiconductor wafers in the United States has further increased. Now, with the global wafer 12-inch silicon wafer plant site in the United States, will also further fill the key gap in the semiconductor supply chain.
