Tele-Fonika Cable Americas, a subsidiary of Poland’s Tele-Fonika Kable S.A. (TFKable), plans to invest $365 million in a new cable manufacturing plant in Texas, an initiative that would represent its first in the U.S.
A press release said that the company plans to build on a 117-acre site in Waller, Texas, which is near Houston. The plant will manufacture a variety of wire and cable products for power, telecom, energy, and industrial markets, supporting both domestic and export demand. The proposed facility would create some 75 permanent jobs.
The company filed for a state tax abatement application in August, seeking a 10-year tax incentive for 2030 to 2039 “to help make the project viable.” If that follows, the company plans to spend about $150 million from 2026 to 2029 on construction, with operations to begin in 2029.
TFKable, which runs six manufacturing facilities plants in Poland, U.K. and Serbia, serves some 90 countries through its distribution network. U.S. operations were limited to sales and distribution offices.
