Eastern Engineered Wood Products, a wholesale distributor of engineered wood products, has selected Anderson County to establish the company’s first South Carolina operation. The $18.7 million investment will create 31 new jobs.
Founded in Pennsylvania in 1998, Eastern supplies engineered wood products to building materials dealers and lumberyards across the East Coast. The company also provides technical support to customers including product placement drawings, product specification assistance and sales education.
Eastern’s new distribution center, to be located in Belton, S.C., will service lumber dealers and component manufacturers in South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
Operations are expected to start later this year with full completion of the project in early 2026.
The Coordinating Council for Economic Development awarded a $100,000 Set-Aside grant to Anderson County to assist with the costs of site preparation and building construction.
“Establishing this new location in Anderson County, S.C., is an exciting next step in our growth and expansion strategy,” said EEWP president Todd Lindsy. “We have long recognized the need for our products and services in the Southeast, and the Upstate of South Carolina is the ideal area from which to support that need. Support from the state and local authorities has been tremendous, and we look forward to working together as we grow our operation.”
