Hormann To Begin Operations In Sparta Next Year

White County’s Hormann manufacturing facility will begin operations next year.

County Executive Denny Wayne Robinson said the company hopes to take possession of the 315,000 square foot facility in March.

“This is going to be an amazing thing for White County,” Robinson said. “Even adjusted for inflation, this is the largest investment ever in the history of White County. This is going to affect people’s lives for the better and make White County a better place to live for years to come.”

The German manufacturer of doors, garages, and door frames began taking applications earlier this year. Robinson said residents can locate job listings on the company’s website.

“For startup, They’re looking in the neighborhood of 200 jobs out there,” Robinson said.

Hormann broke ground on the $64 million facility in July, 2018. A year earlier, the company announced it would expand its American production to Sparta.
