South Carolina’s life sciences industry continues to gain momentum, and we recently had the opportunity to highlight that progress during Mayor Reginald Burgess’ visit to SHL Medical’s North Charleston site.
From discussions on manufacturing and workforce development to a tour of our autoinjector production facility, the visit offered a closer look at the technologies and operations supporting SHL Medical’s expanding manufacturing presence in the US.
During the visit, Mayor Burgess joined our North Charleston team in recognizing the 100th shipment delivered to one of our pharma partners, marking an important milestone in the site’s continued growth.
Conversations with our team members also highlighted how advanced manufacturing supports the Lowcountry’s evolving life sciences sector while reflecting SHL Medical’s focus on manufacturing, innovation, and workforce growth. Since establishing operations in the state, SHL Medical has created hundreds of jobs and continues to expand our footprint in the region.
We thank Mayor Burgess for taking the time to visit our site and engage in discussions on the continued growth of manufacturing and life sciences in South Carolina.
