CEO Dave Ramsey announced Monday that Ramsey Solutions will invest $52 million to expand its corporate headquarters in Franklin and create 600 jobs.
The Tennessean reports Ramsey Solutions will build a second office building, totaling nearly 192,000 square feet and six stories, on its corporate campus in Williamson County. This is part of Ramsey Solutions’ continued expansion, which started in 2015 when the company closed on 47 acres of land in the Berry Farms development.
“We appreciate our partnership with Gov. Lee and Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development in helping us create another 600 jobs for our state," Ramsey said. "Tennessee’s low tax environment is causing healthy business growth and migration. It’s helping boost our economy, and we’re honored to be a part of that."
This makes the third large-scale jobs announcement this year in Williamson County. Previously, Spirit Airlines announced it would relocate more than 240 positions to Tennessee and create 100 additional jobs in Williamson County. Digital platform Thnks, currently headquartered in New York City, will also make the move and create 50 jobs in three years.
"As we work to get Tennessee’s economy back on track, significant expansions like this from Ramsey Solutions will help our economy recover by offering our residents quality job opportunities," Gov. Bill Lee said. "Ramsey Solutions has long been a terrific corporate citizen in Williamson County, and I am pleased to see it continue to invest and create high quality jobs.”
In 2019, the Ramsey team moved into the first six-story office building, which includes podcast and radio studios, more than 200,000 square feet of workspace, a team member cafeteria, a bookstore and coffee shop for guests watching “The Dave Ramsey Show” live in the studio. This latest expansion will accommodate the company’s continued growth. Construction on the second office building began in August 2019 and is expected to be completed in May 2021.
