Coastal Corrugated, Inc. opened its doors to the Charleston, South Carolina area in March of 1987. Until then, Charleston had never been home to a direct manufacturer of corrugated packaging. Jim Bozard and two partners envisioned a packaging company that could fulfill its customers high quality packaging needs from concept through final delivery. Their vision proved providential as the company experienced rapid and sustained growth throughout the decade to follow. This prompted the purchase of land and the building of a new and expandable facility in 1996. This, coupled with the purchase of additional state-of-the-art machinery, facilitated its ability to meet new production, warehousing and shipping needs. The Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce named Coastal as one of its Emerging 10 companies in 1997. From this elite group of companies, Coastal Corrugated, Inc. won top honors by being selected as the Chambers Small Business of the Year for 1997-1998. These awards were based on exceptional growth rate in sales, integrity and high standards of quality. At the awards ceremony, the company was said to have differentiated itself from its competitors by exemplifying superior customer service and by paying attention to detail.
