The Royal Appliance Mfg. Co. (RAM), a subsidiary of the TTI Group, announced the formal approval for the acquisition of assets of Oreck Corporation. The announcement followed the decision of the Middle District of Tennessee, United States Bankruptcy Court, which formally approved of RAM as the winning bidder for Oreck Corp.'s assets. TTI will maintain the production of the Oreck products at the Cookeville, TN facility.
