Boeing South Carolina progresses on $1B 787 assembly plant expansion

Boeing South Carolina lifted the final steel beam into place at its new 787 final assembly building in North Charleston on October 30, 2026, less than a year after breaking ground on the $1 billion investment. The expansion is expected to add 1,000 workers by 2030 and bring the majority of capability online in late 2027.
