Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bob Rolfe and Dorman Products officials announced that the automotive parts manufacturer, together with its capital partner, will invest more than $55 million to expand its operations in Robertson County.

Features:

Dorman Products plans to establish a new production and distribution facility in the Tennessee-Kentucky Industrial Park, located on the Robertson County side of the city of Portland. The aftermarket parts supplier will create approximately 215 jobs.

Dorman Products will build an 815,000-square-foot facility in Portland. Construction of the new facility will begin in the first quarter of 2018. The new building is tentatively scheduled to be operational in the first quarter of 2019.

Once construction is complete, Dorman Products will relocate its existing Portland operations to the new facility. Dorman Products employs 380 people in Portland, where it has operated since 2006.
