Today we celebrate two years of connection, partnership, and community.
On March 20, 2023, we officially planted our roots here in South Carolina and set out on a journey to forge a new Scout® era.
Since then, we've created hundreds – soon to be thousands – of jobs, began building our Production Center from the ground up, and built strong relationships within our community. And this is only the beginning.
Thank you to the Palmetto State for allowing us to be a part of your legacy.
