Frigidaire Kinston plant is a Frigidaire appliance manufacturing plant in Kinston, North Carolina, owned by Electrolux.
History The factory was built and opened on October 23, 1989 by White Consolidated Industries (which was a subsidiary of Electrolux) to manufacture 24-inch plastic tub dishwashers.
In September 2005, Electrolux invested $18 million to expand its Kinston dishwasher plant, adding a new line of stainless steel dishwashers and create 97 new jobs over three years.
In 2012, the plant launched award-winning models like the Frigidaire Gallery Orbit Clean dishwasher. The plant celebrated its 25th anniversary in October 2014, and its 30th anniversary in 2019.
In late 2025, Electrolux announced a $23 million expansion to add stainless steel tub manufacturing lines slated for 2027. The expansion will add 74 jobs, as well as the 30,000-square-foot expansion to its existing facility.
