Kahn wanted an office where our local project managers and superintendents could work, but, more importantly, we wanted a permanent Charleston address to provide an anchor spot within the community, to better serve our existing clients, and to develop new relationships going forward,” said Scott Appleton, M.B. Kahn’s executive vice president. The company first opened it’s Charleston office in 2013, and has been building continuously in the Charleston area since the 1950’s.
