From a tool/forging/foundry site that I follow:
New Plant May Follow Stanley Black & Decker, Craftsman Deal
Stanley Black & Decker Inc. reportedly will build a new manufacturing plant in the U.S., a $35-million capital investment, in a bid to support the “Buy American” industrial and trade policies advocated by President-elect Donald J. Trump. Details of the new plant development — such its location, schedule for development, and the products to be manufactured there — are unknown.
It’s also unclear whether the stated value of the investment represents a total cost, or an initial development cost.
What is significant about the deal is that Sears currently contracts with Asian and other manufacturers to produce the Craftsman products, but Stanley plans to produce its version the U.S.
