RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif., Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iPower Inc. (NASDAQ: IPW), a data and technology driven e-commerce retailer and infrastructure company, today announced a key milestone in its U.S.-based manufacturing initiative. The Company’s newly acquired packaging production line has been delivered to iPower’s domestic facility ahead of schedule and is ready for immediate assembly.
“The arrival of our packaging production line represents a major step forward in building out a resilient domestic manufacturing infrastructure in the United States,” said Lawrence Tan, CEO of iPower Inc. “We now have physical production capacity arriving on-site, strong interest from prospective customers, and—importantly—confirmed purchase orders ahead of production. We are pleased with the progress to date and remain focused on building additional onshore capabilities to deliver greater value to our customers.”
The packaging production line is part of iPower’s previously announced joint venture, United Package NV LLC, formed to establish U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities for commercial packaging.
