Raymond dealer Carolina Handling has broken ground on a new 267,000-sq.ft (24,800 sqm) facility in Pickens County, South Carolina.

Scheduled to open in the Northern Hemisphere spring of 2025, the new building will bring together the warehouse and office space from four area facilities under one roof. 

The warehouse will have technician bays for new, rental and renewed equipment, as well as parts, distribution and logistics operations.

It will also house offices, meeting and training space and a customer experience centre. 

Carolina Handling is the exclusive Raymond Solutions and Support Centre for South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida's central time zone.

The company is continuing to evolve from a forklift-only provider to an end-to-end intralogistics solutions company.
