Berkeley, South Carolina – [Date]
Nucor Steel Berkeley, a subsidiary of Nucor Corporation, North America's leading steel and steel products company, has announced a $200 million investment over five years in a mill modernization project. This investment underscores Nucor's commitment to sustainability, innovation, and providing its customers with the highest quality steel products.
The modernization project will focus on improving the mill's environmental performance, increasing production capacity, and enhancing product quality.

Nucor Steel Berkeley, which has operated in Berkeley County since 1998, is a major employer in the region and a key supplier of steel products to industries throughout the United States. The company's success led to the establishment of Nucor's second structural mill in Berkeley in 1998.

"We believe that sustainability, innovation, and quality are the cornerstones of our success, and this project will strengthen our position as the leading steel producer in North America."
The modernization project is expected to be completed in phases over the next five years. Nucor Steel Berkeley anticipates that the investment will create new jobs and stimulate economic growth in the region.
