NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. — Camille Whitfield, the company's chief executive, says the lab will focus on logistics and clean-energy technology.
The move comes amid a wave of corporate relocations and expansions across South Carolina, as companies cite the state's workforce, tax incentives, and logistics access as key draws.
The company plans to share more details on hiring timelines and community partnerships in the coming months.
Local economic development officials welcomed the announcement, noting that it adds to a growing list of employers choosing to grow in the region rather than elsewhere in the Southeast.
What Comes Next
Officials say the coming months will be a key test of whether the momentum described above holds up. Community members in North Charleston are encouraged to follow updates as more details become available.
