Ingevity CEO David Li rang the New York Stock Exchange closing bell at 4 p.m. Oct. 26, marking the North Charleston chemical maker's 10th year as a publicly traded company. It listed in late April 2016 at $26.63 a share and traded around $71 on Monday afternoon.
Why this matters here
Ingevity employs about 1,400 people across 17 locations and started as a pine-chemicals division of a local paper mill. It is a reminder that some of the biggest names on the Charleston business page grew out of something small and local.
