Hampton Lumber to open $225M sawmill in South Carolina
[Jun 26, 2025]



The Oregon-based company plans to open a sawmill in South Carolina.

Hampton Lumber, a producer of sustainable building materials, announced it selects Allendale County to establish the company’s first sawmill on the East Coast. The company’s $225 million investment will create at least 125 new jobs.

Headquartered in Oregon, Hampton Lumber is a fourth-generation, family-owned producer of high-quality wood products sourced from sustainable managed forest resources.

Operating nine sawmills in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, Canada, the company markets and sells building materials worldwide.

Hampton Lumber will construct a state-of-the-art, 375,000-square-foot lumber mill located at Highway 321 and Barker Mill Pond Road in Fairfax.

The new operation will specialize in producing quality Southern Yellow Pine framing lumber. Construction of the mill is expected to begin later this year, with operations slated to commence in early 2027.
