A boost to the Laurens County economy was announced Tuesday.
Uniscite Inc., currently operating out of Greenville, says the company will set up shop in with a new plant.
Around 100 new jobs will be created, along with a $70 million investment.
Uniscite Inc. makes plastic films used for packaging and food products.
“We celebrate Uniscite’s decision to establish its new manufacturing plant in South Carolina and create 100 new jobs. This announcement is another big win for one of our state’s rural counties. We will continue to build on our economic development successes and foster job creation throughout our state,” said Gov. Nikki Haley.
A $400,000 grant and job development credits were made available to Uniscite Inc. by the Coordinating Council for Economic Development.
“Laurens County offered us an excellent business environment and ready and available workforce. We appreciate all the support we’ve received from state and local officials, and we plan to create as many job opportunities as possible for the state,” said Ms. Fang Wang, general manager of Uniscite Inc.
The plant is expected to be in operation by the first quarter of 2014.
Hiring will begin early next year. Pre-employment training will be provided.
