The owner of my local LGS said Pokemon is opening 2 new factories in the USA. He got this info from his distributor. Any truth in this?

Rudy Toody mention this in a video a little while back. Pokemon are ramping up their printing facilities to churn and burn that sweet sweet cash! Kerchingg
Me as soon as those facilities close shop:
If this is confirmed, do we know the locations?
Would be nice if I could find a press release/news article from one of the company’s print contractors (millennium print group, rr donnelly, etc.) announcing something like “investing $x million which will translate to x jobs”
But yeah, this has been the word on the grapevine for a while. Unclear whether pokemon is creating their own facilities, or if their producers are expanding capacity. And if they’re producing their own - would they still work with the printers they work with now? I’m sure they didn’t especially like the recent leaks from shining fates, etc.
