Charleston is a seaport, so importers here can receive FCL and LCL shipments directly, clear customs locally and distribute across United States with minimal inland cost.
Charleston has a strong industrial base, creating steady demand for bearings, power-transmission parts, tools, gauges and MRO supplies from plant stores and distributors.
