AVM Group Establishes National Headquarters in Charleston County

AVM Group, a national provider of turnkey controlled environments, announced it is establishing its national headquarters in Charleston County.

The company’s $5 million investment will create 30 jobs, according to the South Carolina Department of Commerce.

Founded in 1983, AVM Group designs, engineers and installs controlled environments, specializing in cleanrooms, dry rooms, sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIFs), and advanced electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radiation shielding.

At its new 12,000-square-foot headquarters facility, located on Wingo Way in Mount Pleasant, AVM Group will conduct design, engineering, and research and development operations for new controlled environment construction projects.

The company’s South Carolina operation will also support specialized operational and manufacturing functions conducted at its existing site in Ohio.

Operations are expected to be online in 2027. Those interested in joining the AVM Group team should go to the company’s careers page or contact careers@avmgroup.com.

The state’s Coordinating Council for Economic Development approved job development credits related to the project.

The council also awarded a $200,000 Set-Aside grant to Charleston County to assist with the costs of site preparation and building construction.

“Our new headquarters on Wingo Way represents a pivotal bridge between our company’s storied history and its ambitious future. This state-of-the-art facility will serve as the collaborative heart of our leadership team, providing the space and inspiration necessary to drive our next chapter of growth,” said AVM Group CEO Trip Textoris.

Textoris added, “Our goal is to create a facility that exists in harmony with its surroundings — utilizing sustainable building practices that protect the local ecosystem and preserve the environmental integrity of the land. We are proud to call the Lowcountry home and remain committed to being a responsible neighbor and a long-term contributor to the economic vitality of the area and its residents.” 

“AVM Group’s decision to establish its national headquarters in Charleston County is a win for South Carolina,” said Gov. Henry McMaster. “This $5 million investment and the addition of 30 high-quality jobs will have a meaningful impact on the Lowcountry and support continued opportunity across our state.”
