Beaufort County economic development office reopens at 117 W. 3rd Street
Summary
County economic development staff announced the office relocation to 117 W. 3rd Street, said the space 'presents well to companies' and reviewed updates on local business support and infrastructure.
Director Susan Squires opened the committee's economic development update by welcoming attendees to the office's new downtown location at 117 W. 3rd Street and thanking the county for support. "The new location presents well to companies, industry representatives, and potential clients," Squires said, and staff framed the move as important for first impressions when recruiting business.
Squires used the update to outline multiple staff priorities tied to the new office presence: supporting recently located firms, advancing industrial park infrastructure projects, and strengthening university partnerships for workforce development. Committee members noted the relocation during introductions and proceeded to discuss several specific project updates during the meeting.
