This latest 62,000 sq.-ft. facility will provide Ranger Design with additional warehousing capacity and will be a one-stop-shop for resellers and fleet managers offering design, manufacturing, and upfitting services for commercial EV and ICE vehicles.
“This $1.5M investment will allow our current distributor network to participate in local fleet projects that include installation, reporting, and logistics,” Cowie added. “Also, it will enable us to better serve our North American Mercedes-Benz fleet customers, as well as providing an option for large fleet customers with regional needs.”
Located on Sightline Drive in North Charleston, South Carolina, the new facility is expected to be fully operational in October 2023.
