‘World’s Largest’ Vinyl Record Maker Is Getting Even Bigger

Just in time for Record Store Day 2022, a company billing itself as the world’s largest vinyl record manufacturer is investing $13.3 million on a Nashville production plant. The new headquarters of Nashville Record Pressing will house manufacturing, distribution, and administrative functions, creating an expected 255 jobs over five years. The move comes as new industry data show vinyl record sales continue at a healthy pace. “We’re launching Nashville Record Pressing as a direct answer to customer requests to make more vinyl and locate that new production in Nashville,” said Drake Coker, CEO of Nashville Record Pressing, in a press release issued by Tennessee’s Department of Economic and Community Development. “We’re committed to becoming a source of pride for the community. We’re here to be Nashville’s favorite vinyl pressing plant.”
