The new development is expected to bring $15 million in new investment and result in the hiring of 79 new employees in Richland County. The company will be adding additional new injector technology to accommodate their continued growth for commercial vehicle OEMs and the aftermarket.
“The skilled workforce in Richland County provides us with an ideal location for our dedicated employees to continue to deliver our world-class diesel technologies and precision manufacturing expertise. This new addition affords us the opportunity for aggressive growth and to pursue new market channels in the OEM and aftermarket space,” said President/CEO of Pure Power Technologies Jerry Sweetland.
Pure Power Technologies is an independent supplier of precision fuel, air-management and after-treatment systems for light, medium and heavy-duty vehicles. The company integrates research and development, engineering and manufacturing capabilities to produce world-class diesel power systems and advanced emissions control systems for commercial engine markets.
As an incentive, the Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved job development credits related to this project.
“South Carolina’s robust manufacturing industry continues to drive economic success in our state, and today’s announcement from Pure Power Technologies is a testament to that. I’m excited to see both continued growth and what our loyal, world-class workforce will achieve with this expansion in the months and years to come, said Secretary of Commerce Bobby Hitt.
