Fuji plans $100 million expansion

(Published March 7‚ 2003)

GREENWOOD, S.C. (AP) - Fuji Photo Film Inc. plans a $100 million expansion of its production here, company officials said Friday.

The expansion - which will begin immediately and be complete by 2005 - will add production of printing plates for the graphic arts industry, but will not add new jobs.

"We're very pleased to see one of our leading corporate citizens continue to bring new products and new expansions to our state," Gov. Mark Sanford said.

About 1,600 employees work at Fuji's Greenwood complex, which has eight manufacturing plants, the Greenwood Research Laboratories and the largest Fujifilm distribution center in the world. Fuji first came to the state in 1988.

The company also announced a $500,000 donation to help study and preserve the Saluda-Reedy River Watershed and Lake Greenwood.
