New Transformers Facility to Bring $15.3M Investment and 110 Jobs to Burke County, Georgia

Governor Brian P. Kemp announced Oct. 24 that TMC Transformers USA Inc. (TMC), will expand its footprint in Georgia by investing more than $15.3 million over the next five years in a new manufacturing facility in Waynesboro, creating at least 110 new jobs in Burke County.

TMC is a multinational company focused on design and production of medium and low voltage dry-type cast resin and VPI transformers. The company, which counts more than 500 employees and commercial offices in Europe, America, and East Asia, established its first U.S. production plant at the beginning of 2023 in Burke County.

TMC’s new facility at the Burke County Industrial Park in Waynesboro highlights its commitment to strengthening the company's presence and investment in the United States. Operations in Burke County have already started at the company’s first facility, and the new plant is expected to be operational at the beginning of 2026. TMC is now hiring for roles in management, administrative staff, production technicians, operators, testers, sales, and quality control. 

This expansion comes on the heels of several recent manufacturing expansions:

• $155 Million Investment Boosts North American Manufacturing Capacity Amid Rising Demand for Electrical Equipment
• Transformer Manufacturer to Expand in West Tennessee
• Manufacturing Facilities in Stafford, UK to Support Increasing Demand for HVDC Transmission Systems
