3S International Corporation, a strategic sourcing and manufacturing company that specializes in products for the energy market as well as precision large-scale fabrication and painting, is establishing its first U.S. operations in Laurens County.
The $15 million investment is expected to result in 45 new jobs in Laurens, S.C. over the next five years.
Founded in Hong Kong, China in 2000, 3S International was initially established as a limited liability company focused on strategic sourcing.
In 2008, the company launched its first manufacturing operations with a new facility in Jiangsu, China. Today, 3S employs more than 500 workers with operations in the Philippines, China and, now, the United States.
The company’s Laurens County operations will be located in an existing 58,000-square-foot facility at 1073 Neely Ferry Road in Laurens.
To accommodate its administrative needs, 3S is constructing an additional 4,000 square feet of office space at the facility.
With its U.S. operations, 3S will serve the energy divisions of firms in the global marketplace. Additionally, the company will manufacture above-ground storage tanks as well as precision fabrications.
The Laurens County facility is opening its doors on February 20, 2015, and hiring for the new positions is currently underway.
