Gabriel Pascual, senior advisor of Crescent Dairy & Beverages, was honored by Governor Nikki Haley, Secretary of Commerce Bobby Hitt and the South Carolina Department of Commerce as the 2015 South Carolina Economic Ambassador for Colleton County at a ceremony at the Governor’s Mansion Complex on April 2.
Pascual’s site selection team helped Crescent Dairy & Beverages in their decision to locate in Walterboro last year, where they plan to create 60 jobs and invest $30 million in a milk processing and packaging facility.
Pascual led the assessment of 16 states and numerous sites before the selection team chose South Carolina and the Colleton County Commerce Center for their project. He worked closely with ReadySC to train and hire the initial staff and continues to oversee plant growth.
