“Andy is analytical, thoughtful and intentional in everything he does, and Amber approaches every situation with a positive can-do spirit and incredible energy, so we felt like they would be the perfect couple to bring our unique concept to the Charlotte area,” said Robert Sullivan, founder and CEO of Sully’s Steamers.

“The Charlotte market is incredibly important to us, and we are looking forward to expanding our reach throughout the area,” Sullivan said.

The cost to open a store runs from $313,000 to $585,000. Sully’s Steamers locations in South Carolina include Clemson, Simpsonville, Mauldin, Columbia and Greenville, where Sullivan founded the business in 2013.
