Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee, Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bob Rolfe and Groove Life Corporation officials announced the company will invest $1.9 million to expand its Spring Hill headquarters and manufacturing operations. The investment will create 76 new jobs in Maury County over the next five years.
Groove Life currently employs 120 people at its Spring Hill facility. With this expansion, the company will make upgrades to its existing space and renovate a newly purchased building.
Founded in 2015, Groove Life manufactures silicone rings, watch bands and other accessories tailored for active lifestyles. Customers can purchase breathable silicone rings from six collections, as well as a custom collection, for both men and women.

Since 2015, TNECD has supported 20 economic development projects in Maury County, resulting in approximately 4,225 job commitments and more than $1.3 billion in capital investment.
