Mankiewicz Coatings Undergoes $30M Expansion at Charleston Facility
This expansion is quick, as the company only opened the initial $25 million, 90,000-square-foot facility in 2015.
Mankiewicz Coatings is undergoing a $30 million expansion project at its 10-acre Charleston Regional Business Center facility in Charleston, South Carolina. This expansion is quick, as the company only opened the initial $25 million, 90,000-square-foot facility in 2015.
“We thought we could stay in that building for the next 10 years, but literally after four years, we had to start looking for something bigger," says Fabian Grimm, managing director of the Charleston site. "We've experienced such fast growth since moving to Charleston—about 30 percent per year."
A global company headquartered in Germany, Mankiewicz Coatings serves the automobile, aviation and general industries. Mankiewicz customers include Airbus, Boeing, BMW, CNH, Ford and Hatteras Yachts.
