Immigration crackdown impacts Myrtle Beach tourism industry
HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WBTW) — As the White House cracks down on immigration, the head of a local immigration services agency claims hotels and restaurants in the Grand Strand are taking a hit, due to a shortage of cleaning staff. Based in Myrtle Beach, A&B Immigration Services assists immigrants on their paths to citizenship, and helps local companies hire seasonal employees during peak tourist season. Most companies A&B works with hire cleaning staff for hotels and restaurants. The owner of A&B, who chose to remain anonymous, told News13 there is not only an uptick in deportations, but also in visa denials. 'The small businesses, like the staffing companies and cleaning companies, they have suffered significant loss. Owners are even closing up their businesses and are looking for employment themselves, because they depend on the international workers during the peak seasons,' she said. 'We noticed this year that a lot of the individuals, whether they're J-1 and H-2b workers that are applying for the work visas overseas, that at the US embassies, there's an uptick in denials.' She emphasized that A&B encourages taking a legal path to citizenship, and claims the immigration crackdown has put up more barriers for legal immigration. 'We dealt with having workers come to the United States legally and going home, and [the immigration crackdown] has an effect on it. [In] a lot of immigration situations, you're talking about undocumented, but it's not only undocumented, it's immigration as a whole,' she said. 'People who are trying to get here legally, they're unable to because of the climate.' The owner of A&B Immigration said because some hotels are struggling to hire cleaning staff, it's become difficult for them to accommodate the number of people booking rooms. A News13 reporter spoke with a hotel manager on Ocean Boulevard, who said there is an 'everything shortage' in the hospitality industry. * * * Shelby Martin is a multimedia journalist who joined the News13 team in May 2025.

Alexander & Baldwin Announces New Development Project at Komohana Industrial Park
Construction of Two Class A Industrial Buildings Expands Industrial Inventory in Kapolei HONOLULU, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (NYSE: ALEX) ("A&B" or "Company"), a Hawai'i-based owner, operator, and developer of high-quality commercial real estate in Hawai'i, announced it will redevelop a portion of its largest industrial asset, Komohana Industrial Park ("KIP") in Kapolei, O'ahu, with the construction of two Class A industrial buildings totaling approximately 121,000 square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA"). The project will replace an existing 16,000-square-foot building on 5.7 acres of land with a 91,000-square-foot build-to-suit distribution center that is pre-leased to Lowe's and a 30,000-square-foot spec build that could be divided into two 15,000-square-foot-units. Upon completion, KIP's GLA will increase 44% to approximately 343,000 square feet. Construction of the two buildings is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026. "We identified an opportunity to convert under-utilized yard area into new warehouse space, consistent with Alexander & Baldwin's strategy of using our existing inventory of industrial-zoned land to meet the needs of one of the tightest industrial markets in the U.S.," said Lance Parker, president and chief executive officer. "Once complete, Komohana Industrial Park will have nearly 350,000 square feet of GLA with additional land available for future development." "Our ability to pre-lease 75% of this expansion to a high-quality national retailer with a build-to-suit structure speaks to our development capability and demonstrates the strength of the Hawai'i industrial and retail markets," added Jordan Brant, senior vice president of leasing. "Local consumer preferences have evolved with buy-online-pick-up-in-store, and as a result, retailers continue to drive demand for high-quality industrial space to carry inventory and provide faster delivery times."
