"Our expansion in Morristown solidifies Oddello's domestic presence and commitment to Made in America and Made in Morristown manufacturing," Oddello Industries COO Tom Roberts said in a press release issued by the state.

Morristown and the surrounding areas provide a ready workforce, competitive real estate costs and reliable utilities. Oddello began as an east Tennessee company, and we are proud to expand here and want to thank the state of Tennessee for their continued investment in Tennessee companies."
According to reports, Oddello has made substantial investment in three separate properties in the East Tennessee Valley Industrial District, utilizing nearly 1,000,000 square feet of floor space in all for production. The company serves a number of the world's leading furniture brands.
