The initial $30 million, 200,000 square foot ATV manufacturing plant was the beginning of Honda of South Carolina's significant growth in Florence County. In fall 2000, operations expanded to add engine production to the plant. Now, a 535,000 square foot facility employing 650 associates with a cumulative investment of $308 million, HSC has produced nine different ATV models since its start in 1998, including the FourTrax and SporTrax series, and seven different engines.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l6blWMga7NM/UcsuCfNblaI/AAAAAAAACak/NHTIaS7aJMs/s1600/Pioneer+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l6blWMga7NM/UcsuCfNblaI/AAAAAAAACak/NHTIaS7aJMs/s320/Pioneer+6.jpg" width="320" xya="true" /></a></div><br />"The university is grateful to Honda of South Carolina for their generous support of our new Industrial Engineering program," said Fred Carter, president of Francis Marion University.
