12/22/2024
The investment will include a new operations center, located at Cypress Ridge Business Park, which will feature cold storage and office space to allow for expanded service to the Hilton Head and Savannah markets. Operations are scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2026.
“With the growth in South Carolina, especially in the Lowcountry, we recognized a need for a locally owned South Carolina produce distributor. Not only will Senn provide produce for end users but one of our goals is to make it easier for farmers in the area to get their products to market. We are looking forward to building a strong agricultural distribution network that will benefit South Carolina,” Senn Brothers Produce President Gregg Senn said.
To support the project the Coordinating Council for Economic Development awarded a $75,000 Set-Aside grant to Jasper County to assist with the costs of site preparation and building construction.
“We are delighted Senn Brothers Produce is growing its presence in South Carolina and building on the strength of our thriving agribusiness industry. This new operation in Jasper County will expand the company’s reach and create meaningful opportunities for the people of our state,” Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III noted. Senn Brothers Produce is a distributor of locally sourced produce. The company delivers fruits and vegetables sourced from local farmers and producers.
“Senn Brothers Produce is a leader in the distribution of premium fresh produce, and their family-owned company shares the values of hard work, quality and excellence that our region of South Carolina is known for, so their company will be an asset and a terrific fit for our business community. Every job Senn Brothers Produce creates here improves the quality of life for a local family. We are grateful that they chose the Southern Carolina region, and we look forward to working with them,” SouthernCarolina Alliance President and CEO Danny Black added.
