Aqua Diamond Heads to Abbeville County: New Beginnings for an Eco-Friendly Water Company
Abbeville County is now home to an exciting and innovative company that’s making waves in the beverage industry. Recently, the local community welcomed Aqua Diamond LLC, a forward-thinking startup specializing in additive-free flavored water products. The announcement came as refreshing news during the first week of November when the company decided to set up its headquarters and operational base in this strategic location.
Eco-Friendly Practices at the Heart
At the core of Aqua Diamond’s philosophy are their eco-friendly practices and their commitment to sustainable sourcing. The buzzworthy brand introduces its delicious Aquadiamond water, available in four distinct flavors. Their unique packaging solutions not only aim to catch the eye but also to protect our environment. In a world increasingly conscious about waste and pollution, Aqua Diamond stands out by placing sustainability at the forefront of its mission.
Abbeville’s Strategic Advantage
According to Ehsan Fallah, the President and CEO of Aqua Diamond, choosing Abbeville County was a thoughtful decision. “We selected the Abbeville area and the Abbeville Manufacturing Incubator due to its strategic location, supportive business environment, and commitment to fostering innovation,” Fallah declared. With a focus on innovation, the incubator offers workforce development, expert mentorship, and university collaborations that align perfectly with Aqua Diamond’s future endeavors.
Creating Opportunities and Fostering Growth
The establishment of Aqua Diamond’s headquarters in Abbeville brings bright prospects to the local economy. Not only does the startup plan to produce eight new jobs, but it also hopes to expand its reach over the next few years. By collaborating closely with local universities, they aim to train manufacturing engineers, offering internships for students eager to dive into research.
“Within three to five years, we hope to establish a successful flavored water drink brand, expand our operations, and collaborate extensively with academia,” Fallah mentions. Their investment in local talent development, coupled with a nurturing culture of innovation, is set to make a meaningful impact on the Abbeville community.
Community Support and Industry Connections
Aqua Diamond’s choice to be part of the Lakelands Commerce Industrial Park is seen as a win-win situation for both the company and the community. This 22,000-square-foot facility provides the ideal playground for startups eager to grow in manufacturing. With the likes of Logica Automation, PHV Engineering, and Orion Safety Systems as neighbors, Aqua Diamond joins a pack of ambitious companies under the supportive wing of the Abbeville County Economic Development Partnership.
Brian McClain, the chairman of the Abbeville County Council, expressed excitement about Aqua Diamond’s potential. Describing them as “the perfect candidate” for the incubator’s visionary space, McClain emphasized his community’s readiness to support these fresh ideas, saying, “Our community resources are prepared to help turn dreams into reality.”
