What this is
When Millennium Print Group's new campus in North Carolina, which prints Pokémon cards in the US, is due: complete by 2027, with full-scale operation expected in late 2028.
How it’s built
- Reported by the games news site Insider Gaming. The campus is 1.27m sq ft, against the existing 400,000 sq ft building, with upgrades from early 2026.
What we assumed
- The timetable holds.It is the company's plan as reported; building projects often slip.
- The new space adds Pokémon card capacity.The report ties it to card printing, but how much will go to Pokémon is not stated.
Sanity check
Roughly three times the existing building's floor space, so the relief to supply, if it comes, is a 2028 event rather than a 2026 one.
The value
- completed by 2027; full-scale operations late 2028
