COLUMBIA, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – The Office of Governor Henry McMaster said Thursday that Carolina Handling announced it is growing its South Carolina footprint with a new operation in Pickens County.

Carolina Handling is a material handling systems integrator that develops strategic solutions to increase the efficiency of supply chains.

“The company’s $23.2 million investment will create 100 new jobs in the next five years,” the Office of the Governor wrote in the press release.
