NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 9, 2024 – LG Electronics USA and the Tennessee Titans have signed a multi-year extension of their partnership, which will continue to focus on providing support to local businesses, driving economic growth and creating community programs and events.
At a special signing ceremony at the Titans’ training facility in Nashville, Titans Chief Operating Officer Daniel Werly and Titans alumni Jevon Kearse and Keith Bulluck presented LG Electronics North America CEO Chris Jung, an honorary football jersey and commemorative football. Later at the LG home appliance factory in Clarksville, more than 900 employees had the chance to meet Kearse and Bulluck to celebrate the renewal of the contract. Also at the event, Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden and Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts recognized LG's role as a major employer and good corporate citizen in Middle Tennessee.
“LG continues to exemplify the traits we look for in an impactful and strategic partnership that benefits both our fans and the broader Tennessee community,” said Werly. “We always aim to work alongside businesses who share our commitment to service, as well as offering an excellent customer and fan experience – LG is a perfect representation of those values. We are proud to sign-on for three more years of collaboration.”
Jung said the Titans’ values align with LG’s. “We believe in investing in the communities where we live and work, and this collaboration allows us to directly support Tennesseans and the causes they care about with partners that are also strongly committed to Tennessee. Over the years, we have had the pleasure of giving back together through programs such as Community Care Cycle and Taste of Tennessee, and providing disaster relief efforts when unfortunate situations arise.”
Since 2018, with the establishment of its million-square-foot home appliance factory in Clarksville, LG has been a staple in the Tennessee community demonstrating its commitment to Tennesseans through several key initiatives:
LG Electronics, America’s most reliable line of home appliances, produces some of its award-winning washers, dryers and laundry centers for the US market at the Clarksville plant. Named a “Lighthouse Factory” by the World Economic Forum, this factory has proven to be one of the world’s leading operations, shaping the future of manufacturing through the integration of AI, the Internet of Things, big data, robotics, and other Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies.
Between the LG Electronics home appliances factory in Clarksville, the LG Chem cathode plant (also in Clarksville) and the LG Energy Solution EV battery venture with General Motors in Spring Hill, Tenn., LG is investing more than $4 billion and creating as many as 2,600 jobs in Tennessee.
