RICHARDSON, TX – Motorola Solutions opened a 136,000 sq. ft. Video Security and Analytics manufacturing facility here.

The business segment had almost $1 billion in revenue in 2020, according to reports. The new facility is expected to ship nearly 400,000 cameras and produce one million PCBAs in 2021.

The facility will employ some 250 staff, with expected growth to 300.

The new site consolidates smaller manufacturing facilities from Allen, Plano and Carrollton, TX, and will serve as the manufacturing hub for at least six companies.

"We have quite a large employee base in Texas, approximately 1,000 employees, with a majority of them in the Dallas area," said John Kedzierski, senior vice president and general manager of Video Security & Analytics at Motorola Solutions. "We wanted to consolidate into one world-class facility that had the size and scale for us to continue our growth. We chose to stay local because it would be convenient for our current employees, the facility worked out very well for us and we had good access to the airport.

“We’re proud to be building upon our commitment to provide advanced video security offerings that help our customers make better informed decisions. With this new state-of-the-art facility, we will be manufacturing critical, NDAA-compliant safety and security video solutions on the doorstep of American public safety agencies and businesses.”
