Jesse Gary, President and CEO of Century Aluminum, recently spoke with Fox Business about the company’s operations in Goose Creek, South Carolina, where production capacity has increased from 50% to 100% over the past year. The expansion added over 100 jobs at the plant and contributed to a 10% increase in U.S. aluminum output. Gary credited the Trump administration’s tariffs with creating a “fair playing field” for domestic producers, stating that the policies have helped rebuild an industry he described as “left for dead.” He also linked domestic manufacturing to national security concerns and argued that such investments set the stage for broader economic growth, though he noted these issues may not resonate with individual voters at the ballot box. Gary’s comments were made during a segment that also highlighted the role of global conflicts and tariffs in driving aluminum price spikes. He suggested that further investment in domestic capacity and supply chains would help stabilize prices. The plant held a ribbon-cutting ceremony later that day, which was attended by local officials and Secretary Howard Lutnick.
