08/21/2024
Netherlands-based Eveon Containers, an online provider of used shipping containers, plans to establish operations in Charleston, South Carolina. The project is expected to create more than 25 jobs.

The new headquarters, located in the Cigar Factory, will house Marketing and Customer Care teams and further support the company’s online platforms.

“During our tour of various cities, Charleston distinguished itself through the strategic significance of its port, the emerging digital corridor and its distinctive charm. These factors were pivotal in establishing our foundation and launching our headquarters here. As part of our expansion, we relocated our customer service team from the Northeast to Charleston to ensure the southern hospitality organic to the Lowcountry was conveyed to our customers nationwide,” Eveon CEO Aad Storm said.

Eveon Containers provides sustainable building, shipping and storage solutions for its customers nationwide including businesses, educational institutions, government agencies and more.

“Through the innovative repurposing of used shipping containers, Eveon shows what is possible with a commitment to sustainability. We value the company’s environmentally conscious dedication and look forward to offering continued support as Eveon grows its North American headquarters,” Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III noted.

“Charleston County is thrilled to welcome the expansion of Eveon Containers, which will create over 25 new jobs in our community,” added Charleston County Economic Development Executive Director Steve Dykes. “Eveon’s innovative online platform for used shipping containers brings a unique and dynamic business model to Charleston County. Their strategic decision to locate their North American headquarters positions them for continued success. We’re confident Eveon will thrive in Charleston and contribute to our local economy for years.”
