2023 brought significant milestones for Spartan Fire as the company celebrated its 50th anniversary

2023 brought significant milestones for Spartan Fire as the company celebrated its 50th anniversary and embarked on the groundbreaking of its new headquarters.

Located strategically on I-85, between Spartanburg, SC, and Greenville, SC, the state-of-the-art facility is poised to enhance the company's service offerings, efficiency, and support for customers across the region.

Robby Fore stated, "The people who make up our team share the same vision and purpose, creating a positive culture we feel spills over to the relationships we have with our customers."

exceptional service and sustainable growth

"Our sustainable growth has allowed us to continue investing in the resources needed better to serve our customers in all aspects of our business," adds Robby Fore.

Spartan Fire started with only three employees in 1991 and has grown to a team of 40 professionals, dedicated to serving the entire state of South Carolina. This growth directly results from the company's focus on providing exceptional service beyond the sale, a core initiative since the early 2000s.

new service facility

As Spartan Fire looks to the future, plans include further expansion. A new service facility was opened in 2023, and construction plans for the opening of its new headquarters in Spartanburg County are in full gear.

Ground-breaking of the new headquarters is estimated to take place in May 2024, with the building expected to be complete by mid-2025. The new facilities allow Spartan Fire to provide additional services, including expanded access to highly trained certified service managers, parts managers, and technicians.
