Impact Housing Group Plans Westminster, South Carolina, Manufacturing Plant

08/26/2022
Impact Housing Group, a premier manufacturer of modular design housing, will establish operations in Westminster, South Carolina. The $30 million project is expected to create 215 jobs in Oconee County over the next five years.

Located on Oconee Business Parkway at the Oconee Industry and Technology Park, the new facility will address the increased affordable housing demand across the region. Operations are expected to begin August 2023.

“As more and more communities are challenged by the lack of essential housing, our new manufacturing facility in Westminster, S.C. will provide quality-engineered, modern, modular housing solutions at a more affordable price. Our homes will positively impact the quality of life and economic growth of people and their communities for a long time to come,” said Impact Housing Group President and CEO Cecil Phillips.

The Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved job development credits related to this project. The council also awarded a $250,000 Set-Aside grant to Oconee County to assist with the costs of site preparation and building construction.

"With their expertise in affordable housing, Impact Housing Group will be a great addition to the state and Oconee County. We welcome them to South Carolina and congratulate them on their $30 million investment that will create 215 new jobs,” Governor Henry McMaster added.

Impact Housing Group is a volumetric modular housing company that provides solutions for homes that are assembled off-site in a controlled environment.
