"We're grateful to our team in Cleveland, as well as the local, state, and federal officials who supported this project to retain and grow jobs in Tennessee," said Al Holaday, vice president of manufacturing, operations, and quality. "Whirlpool is proud to employ more U.S. manufacturing workers than any appliance maker selling product in the U.S."
