Sushi distributor Hissho Sushi plans to establish operations in Rock Hill, South Carolina. The $5 million project is expected to create 146 jobs in York County.

The investment will include the relocation of the company’s corporate headquarters and primary distribution operations to 3621 Lazy Hawk Road.

“Relocating to South Carolina is a major milestone in Hissho Sushi’s continued growth story. York County offers us the space, resources and talent we need to fuel our next chapter, and we’re excited to become part of this vibrant community. This move allows us to expand our operations while maintaining the high standards of quality and service our customers expect,” said Hissho Sushi President Matt Wilken.

To support the project the Coordinating Council for Economic Development approved job development credits. The council also awarded a $150,000 Set-Aside grant to York County to assist with the costs of road improvements.

“Hissho Sushi’s $5 million investment and new operation in York County is a testament to South Carolina’s thriving business climate and food distribution industry. Congratulations to Hissho Sushi and York County on this announcement and the opportunities it will create in the local community," Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III noted.

Hissho Sushi is known for serving fresh sushi and Asian-inspired products in various locations including grocery stores, hospitals, airports, and universities.
