An integral part of the current economic development plan for Cleveland County, North Carolina, the 5,000sq ft airport terminal building was officially opened in September 2010. As the main gateway to the City of Shelby for a number of corporations currently located in the area and for those looking for potential business locations, it was important to create the right first impression for both corporate executives and pilots by providing a comfortable, well equipped modern facility, as well as an exciting space to serve members of the local community.
