Vertiv Announces New Jobs and Major Capacity Expansion with Second Manufacturing Facility in Anderson County

Pelzer operations projected to add up to 300 skilled jobs to the local economy

Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, today announced a major expansion of its Anderson County operations with a new manufacturing facility in Pelzer. The opening of the 215,000-square-foot (about 20,000 square meters) facility is projected to create up to 300 additional skilled jobs in Anderson County. Vertiv also has a switchgear and busbar facility in Anderson, South Carolina.

“We’re excited to make this significant expansion of our North American manufacturing operations in Anderson County, which has become a hub for our infrastructure solutions business,” said Anand Sanghi, president, Americas at Vertiv. “Increasing manufacturing capacity is critical to supporting increasing customer demand for high-performance computing and artificial intelligence, and the Vertiv Pelzer operations are central to that mission and our success.”

The new facility will help Vertiv to meet capacity demands for data center infrastructure solutions, including integrated modular solutions, power systems on pre-integrated frames or in enclosures, and complete data center systems. Factory integration and testing reduces time and cost for installation, reduces risk associated with complex site construction, and the modular approach provides a path for customers to confidently expand their operations in the future.

Tommy Haughton, director of operations for the Anderson County facilities, shared that Vertiv will host job fairs and recruitment events in the coming months to meet with candidates for open positions, including mechanical and electrical engineers, electrical testers, electricians, skilled mechanics, procurement, project management, and general operations. He noted that the company has a robust training program and dedicated training teams to facilitate onboarding and quality.
