CLINTON, Tenn. - Automotive parts maker Nelson Global Products is expanding operations at facilities in Tennessee and Illinois.

The Stougton, Wis.-based maker of exhausts and tubular products is also closing a facility in Peoria, Ill., as it restructures its operations amid increasing product offerings and production.
