DICKSON, Tenn. (April 23)—Bridgestone APM Co. has committed to build a 150,000-sq.-ft. plant in Tennessee to produce foam products for its Japanese transplant auto maker customers.

Bridgestone will invest $11 million in the operation which should be complete by March 2004 and employ 170 people by 2006, the company said in a release.
