Tuesday, the South Carolina Department of Commerce and Williamsburg County announced that The Truss Company Inc. will locate its new facility in Williamsburg County. The $1.25 million investment is expected to bring 50 new jobs.
The Truss Company Inc. will manufacture engineered wood roof and floor trusses at the new facility in Salters, S.C. Construction of the plant is scheduled to begin this month and operations are expected to start in March or April.
"We are pleased to be building our new facility in Williamsburg County. South Carolina has a positive business environment and a very strong workforce. We appreciate all the support we've received from state and local officials. There has been a broad range of help in getting this company to become a reality. I would personally like to thank Hilton McGill and Patty Herbert of the Williamsburg County Development Board, Terry Nation of BB&T Bank of Anderson S.C., Nikki Kellahan of Kellahan and Associates Engineers and Surveyors, also Carl Saconey and Dave Mueller of the Application Council of Governments. Without all these people working hard and not giving up, this company may not have gotten off the ground," said David Rice, president and CEO of The Truss Company Inc.
