Whirlpool Closes Cleveland Plant | Chattanooga News

Whirlpool is shutting down its 50-year-old Cleveland, Tennessee plant — home to 125 workers — as part of a sweeping cost-cutting push to streamline manufacturing. The facility, which made heating and cooling systems, will close by year’s end, hitting the local economy hard and upending lives for longtime employees. While the company promises severance and job-hunting support, many fear finding new work in the region will be tough. This marks the end of an era for a key local employer in the Tennessee Valley.
