OSHA Training for Tecumseh Products
With the help of: Mississippi Manufacturers Association Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MMA-MEP)
About
Tecumseh’s Products has two facilities in Mississippi. Tecumseh's Tupelo facility was brought on line in 1975 as a compressor plant. It now produces compressors and condensing units and also is the North American distribution hub, serving customers in the United States, Canada, Mexico and abroad. Tecumseh also has a plant located in Verona, Mississippi. Tecumseh Products Company has invested a total of $10 million in its facility located in Verona, MS and created 60 additional jobs in the last two years. The company currently has 305 employees.
The Challenge
The total $10 million investment with $4.6 million in state-funded incentives, helped Tecumseh prosper in what has become a highly competitive market with other manufacturers in Eastern Europe, India and China, and working with MMA-MEP Center at Itawamba Community College resulted in $100,000,000 in retained sales.
