The cultural nostalgia for vinyl records is a growing Tennessee manufacturing network.
A Middle Tennessee company supplying materials to Nashville and Memphis-based vinyl record pressing plants is expanding. The growth comes with economic development incentives from the Tennessee Department of Community Development, the state department announced this week.
Wedlake Industries, owner of a Hohenwald facility producing a vinyl record compound, will invest $10 million to expand manufacturing operations and add 46 new jobs in Lewis County.
Wedlake Industries was recently acquired by GZ North America, which owns Nashville Record Pressing and Memphis Record Pressing. Moving forward, those companies will source materials to make LPs directly from the Lewis County facility.
The expansion will make Wedlake Industries the largest vinyl record compound manufacturer in North America.
