Home Depot Inc. is focusing on growing its supply chain and distribution across South Carolina, namely in Greenville, Charleston, Lexington, and Jasper counties. The entire project is expected to create about 100 new jobs in those areas.
"South Carolina is a key hub for the Home Depot's supply chain and our delivery strategy. These new distribution centers create a more seamless experience for pro and DIY customers, with faster and more reliable deliveries to their homes or to the job site," Home Depot Senior Vice President of Supply Chain Stephanie Smith said.
The company was founded in 1978 and operates 2,300 retail stores in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Canada, and Mexico.
In Charleston County, Home Depot will create 31 positions at a distribution center at 7791 Palmetto Commerce Parkway in North Charleston.
In Greenville County, the company will create 31 new jobs at the facility at 74 Brookfield Oaks Drive in Mauldin. The Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved a $75,000 set-aside grant to assist Greenville County with related costs.
In Jasper County, the home improvement chain will add a new distribution center at 10463 Speedway Boulevard in Hardeeville, creating 14 new jobs. The Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved a $100,000 Rural Infrastructure Fund grant to Jasper County to help with costs there.
In Lexington County, the company will add a facility at 842 Bistline Drive in Cayce, creating 23 new jobs.
