Edgecombe Furniture expands in Greenville
A Pitt County furniture maker is planning a nearly $4 million expansion of its facility thanks in part to an $80,000 grant from the state, Pitt County Government announced. Edgecombe Furniture, an existing Pitt County manufacturer of high-performing commercial furnishings, has been operating in North Carolina for nearly a century and in Pitt County since 2019, after the company purchased a 140,000-square-foot facility on Staton Road north of Greenville.
