I found an interesting court case involving Wellman glow plugs.

The short version is that Wellman used to be General Electric, which sold the facility to a predecessor of Wellman. On about February 10, 2003, Wellman filed for bankruptcy and was bought by Shares Corporation. Shares Corporation is one of those companies that use disabled people for employees to get preferential treatment for government contracts. Before Wellman went bankrupt, Shares inspected and repackaged the glowplugs for them. Wellman only had about 11 employees. For the whole story see the link. I could only get through about half of it.
