Company will bring 20 jobs in the first year, with a total of 35 in the first five years
HOLDRITE®, a leading manufacturer in the plumbing industry since 1982, is excited to announce a facilities expansion project that includes a La Vergne location.
“The new locations will allow the business to better leverage the HOLDRITE brand,” says Michelle Hubbard, Founder and Owner of HOLDRITE, “while helping us to continue to provide superior service throughout North America and increasing our business square footage by 20 percent.”
The mid-July expansion project includes expanding from one building in Southern California to three new facilities throughout the country. The executive team will move to a new office location in San Diego, and operations and distribution will operate out of two factories, one in La Vergne, and the second in Las Vegas. The La Vergne location will be located at 1001 Centre Pointe Drive.
Chip O’Neil, Director of Business Development for HOLDRITE, states “The business enthusiastically looks forward to implementing our current and future growth plans, as well as continuing to successfully partner with various communities and industry affiliates in 2011 and beyond.”
“We are excited that HOLDRITE chose La Vergne as part of their expansion project,” said Mayor Senna Mosley. “We welcome HOLDRITE to the La Vergne family as we continue to attract new industry and job opportunities.”
“Our partnership with the State of Tennessee Department of Economic & Community Development, the Department of Labor, the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Middle Tennessee Industrial Development Agency is paramount in recruiting new jobs to Rutherford County,” said Holly Sears, vice president of economic development for the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce.
