Southern Wall Products, Inc., a manufacturer of drywall finishing products, plans to establish operations in Anderson, South Carolina. The $23 million project is expected to create 30 jobs.

The new production facility, located at 1632 Pearman Dairy Road, will increase the company’s capabilities to serve customers throughout the Southeast. Operations are scheduled for June 2025.

“Southern Wall Products has been building communities since 1981. We’re excited for this next chapter for our company, our employees, their families and calling Anderson home to our new S.C. facility,” said Southern Wall Products President Chris Winkler.
