COOL SPRINGS – Williamson county is home to another corporate headquarters. Last week, Carlisle Transportation Products announced it will locate its newly created company in Cool Springs. The company will occupy 28,000 square feet of office space in the McEwen Building, a Class A office building near the intersection of West McEwen Drive and Mallory Lane.

Governor Bill Haslam and Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bill Hagerty  joined with Williamson County Mayor Rogers Anderson and Franklin Mayor Ken Moore in applauding the decision by Carlisle' Transportation Product's parent company, Carlisle Companies Incorporated. The new company was recently formed when the firm’s existing tire and wheel subsidiary and power transmission subsidiary were merged.

Carlisle Transportation Products currently has manufacturing operations in Jackson and Clinton, Tenn., as well as multiple manufacturing and distribution centers in North America and China.

 “My congratulations to Carlisle for the company’s success and my thanks for their investment in Tennessee,” said Haslam when the announcement was made. “I feel strongly Carlisle’s positive experience in Tennessee, coupled with Williamson County’s strong reputation as a location for corporate headquarters, made this announcement possible.”

“The Nashville region provides Carlisle Transportation Products a central location and ready access to customers and manufacturing locations across the country,” said Fred Sutter, President, Carlisle Transportation Products. “Our ability to attract key talent to a highly regarded community like Franklin was a key part of our decision making.”

“The jobs associated with this headquarters project will move us toward our goal of making Tennessee the No. 1 location in the Southeast for high quality jobs,”
Commissioner Hagerty noted.

“Our county aggressively recruits innovators and key corporate decision makers,” Anderson added. "With Carlisle, we get both and we’ll continue to pursue corporate headquarters projects to locate in our community, bringing with them the high paying jobs that move our economy forward.”

The company expects to begin occupying the McEwen space in October, but will have temporary offices in the area in June. Applicants interested in applying for positions with Carlisle Transportation Products can send resumes to ctwjobs@carlisle.com
