Faurecia Interior Systems Plans Spring Hill, Tennessee, Manufacturing Plant

08/29/2018
Automotive components manufacturer Faurecia Interior Systems will invest more than $30 million to locate a new production plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee. The company plans to create 143 new jobs in Maury County.

Faurecia plans to manufacture door panel assemblies at a new 145,000 square foot facility located at 3555 Cleburne Road. Faurecia is the world’s top supplier of seat frames and mechanisms, emissions control technologies and vehicle interiors.

“We are excited to expand our presence in North America to the Spring Hill community of Tennessee,” said Donald Hampton, Jr., President of Faurecia Interior Systems in North America. “Exceptional partnerships with community leadership, and the highly motivated and skilled workforce in this state, made this opportunity possible. I know that together we will continue to deliver the best in high-quality products to our customers.”

Governor Bill Haslam said, “Tennessee’s automotive sector continues to be one of our strongest industries with more than 135,000 automotive workers across the state. The creation of these 140 positions in Maury County will help Tennessee not only lead in the automotive sector, but in the creation of high-quality manufacturing jobs.”

“Since 2011, TNECD has secured more than 9,000 new job commitments in Maury County. I thank Faurecia for choosing to locate its new manufacturing facility in Tennessee,” Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bob Rolfe said. “With 143 new jobs, Maury County and Spring Hill will continue to have strong economic momentum, which will create a better living and working environment for its residents.”

“We would like to thank Faurecia for choosing Spring Hill. Having an operation like Faurecia locate a facility here is phenomenal for our growing city,” Spring Hill Mayor Rick Graham said. “It’s a perfect complement to Spring Hill’s existing industries. Faurecia will create well-paying jobs here at home, which will spawn more local economic growth.”

"We are thrilled to see the strong results of what has been a successful economic development effort by all agencies involved, including the assistance of Maury Alliance and TNECD,” Spring Hill Economic Development Coordinator Kayce Williams said. "I can’t overstate how proud we are to have another manufacturing supplier choose to locate its facility in Spring Hill.”
