MSC USA is proud to announce the groundbreaking of its new office in Charleston, South Carolina. The ceremony, attended by MSC’s CEO, Soren Toft, underscores Charleston’s pivotal role in MSC USA’s operations since 1993. Recognized for its strategic port location, Charleston serves as a key gateway to the Atlantic Ocean and global markets, making it an ideal hub for its activities.
Charleston has been instrumental in MSC USA’s growth, transforming from an office with just two employees to a major operational center with 497 staff members. The city’s rich talent pool, exceptional work-life balance, and business-friendly environment have been crucial in this expansion. Despite challenges such as increased cost-of-living and traffic, Charleston remains a top location for MSC USA employees, thanks to its blend of professional opportunities and quality of life.
