A Dayton, Tenn., automotive supplier is growing its business as it wins new work among an array of car companies, officials said Tuesday.
International Automotive Components is upping its workforce by about 50 people and investing $7.7 million into its Rhea County operations, said state Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bill Hagerty.
That will push the company’s plant staff to just under 300, according to IAC.
“The automotive industry in Tennessee is thriving because of companies like IAC,” Hagerty said in a statement.
