According to Smartpress Vice President, Matt Chapman, the decision to expand in South Carolina was inspired by the region’s dynamic population growth and a talented workforce. “We are proud to bring our 100% employee-owned company to Spartanburg County, knowing the local community will play a key role in our continued success and innovation in print production,” Chapman said.
