GREER, S.C. — DMA Industries, a North American supplier of aftermarket automotive parts, celebrated the grand opening of a 1.4 million-square-foot distribution and operations facility at 578 Robinson Road in Greer, a project the company says will add roughly 100 jobs to the Upstate’s logistics workforce.
The facility sits less than four miles from the Inland Port Greer, giving DMA direct access to international shipping lanes and major domestic trucking corridors — a location the company called central to its long-term growth plans. DMA is headquartered in South Carolina’s Lowcountry and manufactures products in six countries, but the Greer site becomes its largest distribution footprint in the state.
“This facility positions DMA for continued growth while strengthening our ability to serve customers with greater speed, efficiency, and reliability,” said Fred Snow, DMA’s president and chief operating officer. Snow said the company is outfitting the site with advanced RFID tracking, order-picking automation and AI-driven systems to modernize its supply chain operations.
DMA Chief Executive John Treece said the opening marks a turning point for the company’s national logistics strategy. “This facility represents a pivotal step forward in our mission to be the most reliable partner in the automotive aftermarket,” Treece said. “We are not just increasing our square footage; we are dramatically improving our logistical speed-to-market and service excellence.”
The new jobs span warehouse associates, material handlers, receiving and shipping staff, order selectors and pickers, along with IT and administrative roles. The facility began operations in February and reached full capacity this month.
The project adds to a run of industrial activity around Greer and the I-85 corridor, where proximity to the Inland Port and BMW’s manufacturing campus continues to draw logistics and automotive-adjacent tenants to large-format distribution space. For commercial real estate professionals, the DMA facility underscores sustained demand for big-box industrial product in the Upstate even as some markets nationally see absorption cool, with automotive supply chain and last-mile logistics users remaining among the most active tenants in the region’s industrial submarkets.
