“I am excited to continue to expand our presence and reach in the United States in 2019,” said Brett Green, the chief executive officder and president of Mahr Inc. “Coupled with the recent opening of our Southeast Regional Customer Center in Greenville, SC, this represents a significant investment and one that I believe our customers and partners will be delighted to take advantage of. Our Americas headquarters remains in Providence, RI. Our facility there is home to more than 170 employees, where we continue our tradition of proudly manufacturing in the United States.
