JEAR Logistics Expands Its Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, Operations Center

09/14/2016
JEAR Logistics, a third-party logistics company, is expanding its existing operations in Charleston County, South Carolina. The project is expected to result in $2.8 million investment and create 152 new jobs.

Founded in 2007, JEAR Logistics is a privately-held third-party logistics company and freight brokerage service that provides full and less-than truckload services – refrigerated, dry and flatbed – throughout the United States and Canada.

Located at 3409 Salterbeck Street in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, the company will be expanding its existing workforce by 200 percent. Hiring for the new positions is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of this year. The Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved job development credits related to this project.

“Our success begins with our people. Their level of commitment to working together to serve is the core of our team-focused culture. Charleston, South Carolina gives us the perfect setting and infrastructure to continue our growth,” said JEAR Logistics President Mark Neumeyer.

“The 152 new jobs JEAR Logistics is creating with this $2.8 million investment is a huge win for the people of Charleston County, and is a real reason to celebrate. Each time a company like JEAR decides to expand in our state, it shows the world that South Carolina is the place to be doing business because it proves that we have one of the most competitive business environments in the world in which companies of all kinds can find success and thrive,” said Governor Nikki Haley.
