Description
The Springs Cotton Mill traces it's beginning to the organization of the Fort Mill Manufacturing Co. which opened a plant in Fort Mill, SC in 1888. The company went on to open plants in Lancaster, SC, Chester, SC, and Kershaw, SC. At one time Springs was the largest industrial employer in South Carolina. Springs began an association with a Brazil based company (Coteminas) in 2001 and merged with Coteminas in 2005 forming Springs Global. By 2007, Springs had ended all manufacturing in South Carolina.
The Springs Bulletin was a newspaper generally published bimonthly for Springs employees. The Bulletin offered news and information about each of the plants, departments, employees, and general information about the cotton industry. The Springs Bulletin is a great resource for anyone interested in the operation and history of one of the largest industrial employers in the state of South Carolina.
