reindustrialize

Restore factory production

To reindustrialize is to rebuild industrial capacity in a region or country that has lost it.

The term implies a reversal of deindustrialization—the decline of manufacturing that affected many Western economies in the late twentieth century: Politicians promise to reindustrialize the Rust Belt.

The process typically involves government policy, investment in manufacturing, and workforce retraining.
