Whirlpool Corporation Announces $300 Million Investment in U.S. Laundry Operations, Creating 400-600 New Jobs in Ohio

23 Oct, 2025

The Michigan-based manufacturer, which started in the U.S. in 1911 and has stayed in the U.S. throughout its history, is preparing to ramp up production at two Ohio facilities.
Whirlpool Corporation announced a planned $300 million investment in its U.S. laundry manufacturing facilities, one in a series of strategic commitments to grow its American manufacturing footprint. This investment is expected to create between 400 and 600 new jobs across the company’s operations in Clyde and Marion, Ohio, positioning Whirlpool Corp. for increased production of its next generation of washers and dryers, while also supporting approximately 5,000 additional jobs outside the company.
Founded in the United States more than 110 years ago, Whirlpool Corp. maintains the largest U.S. manufacturing operations in the home appliance industry. As the only major U.S.-based manufacturer of kitchen and laundry appliances, today’s investment reinforces that legacy.
“Whirlpool Corporation’s unwavering commitment to American manufacturing is a cornerstone of our identity,” said Marc Bitzer, chairman and CEO of Whirlpool Corporation.
 “This $300 million investment in our Clyde and Marion facilities underscores our dedication to creating jobs, fostering innovation, and delivering high-quality, American-made appliances to U.S. consumers.”
Whirlpool Corp.’s Clyde manufacturing facility, in operation since 1952, is the largest washing machine plant in the world. The Marion dryer factory celebrated its 70th anniversary in September, marking seven decades of manufacturing excellence and community impact.
