The PIE Innovation Center’s VISION to create an intensive, strategic student experience by collaborating with businesses, industries, and nonprofit organizations aligns with PNC’s MISSION to provide packaging solutions for a better world.
The PIE Center enables students to choose their own learning path by connecting students with the people, experiences, and opportunities to succeed as an industry leader.
Located in the former American Uniform plant in Cleveland, TN, the PIE Center is conveniently located between Chattanooga, Knoxville, Nashville, and Atlanta. The Center’s reach, as well as Piedmont’s involvement, will stretch beyond the county and state.
We officially opened spring 2023 and are proud to provide learning opportunities for students in the community.
Piedmont is excited to accelerate the vision of the PIE Innovation Center!
Piedmont National will be training students in end-of-line packaging materials and automation, technical service on warehouse equipment, and kitting and assembly.
We will also host and co-host events in our open showroom, giving students and manufacturers a first-hand look into packaging and shipping processes.
The PIE Center is made up of the following core sections: Career Residency, Compass, Conclave, Connect, CORE, Commons, Medium/Heavy Truck Technology, and The Technology Center.
