FRANKLIN,TN – Carlisle Transportation Products will locate its new 28,000-square-foot corporate headquarters inside Southern Land Co.’s McEwen Building, company and local officials announced today.

The new division, owned by parent company Carlisle Companies Inc. of Charlotte, N.C., will employ about 100 people.

The new lease will bring the 175,000-square-foot building to about 90 percent occupancy, according to a Southern Land spokesman.

The Nashville Business Journal first reported on Carlisle’s plans for a new Franklin HQ in April. For an interview with Carlisle Transportation Products President Fred Sutter on the new division’s plans, click here.
