TMC Transportation, one of the trucking industry’s premier flatbed carriers, announced it is growing the company's Southeast presence with the expansion of its regional headquarters in Richland County, S.C. The $38 million investment will create 185 new jobs.
Employee-owned TMC Transportation has more than 50 years of experience in the trucking industry and a 25-year history in South Carolina. The company is headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, and has a network of terminals and service centers throughout the U.S.
TMC Transportation will consolidate the three facilities it is leasing in central South Carolina into a single 44-acre campus located at 2716 Shop Road in Columbia.
