US Pillars, a shelving manufacturer, will invest nearly $1 million in Putnam County, Tennessee, to expand operations at its headquarters.
Located in Cookeville, the company expects to bring 58 new jobs to the area as part of its acquisition of Hörmann, a German, family-owned manufacturer headquartered in Sparta.
“Our company, US Pillars, was formed for the very purpose of economic development through manufacturing with makers who find great fulfillment in making shelves for book spaces,” Lisa Uhrik, US Pillars Co-Owner, said. “We relocated an existing company, Franklin Fixtures, from Cape Cod to Cookeville in 2015. Now, with the faith of Hörmann, US Pillars is expanding with these garage doors, a market that Hörmann plans to expand further with this new location that is more favorable for East Coast and Southeast Coast customers.”

Gov. Bill Lee said Tennessee leads the nation with “one of the fastest-growing economies” due to companies continuing to invest in the state.“We know US Pillars will reap the benefits of Tennessee’s highly skilled workforce and strong business climate,” Lee said. “These new jobs will create tremendous opportunities for families across Putnam County, and we are excited to bring this project to fruition.”
