Shaw Air Force Base is located adjacent to Sumter, SC. “You will enjoy great temperatures and landscapes as tranquil as Swan Lake’s Gardens who has swans from around the world and Japanese iris in May. A metropolitan city with a small town feel”, centrally located between the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west. The Shaw AFB Exchange operates on funds generated through sales of merchandise and services, not on tax dollars. Each month, a dividend is paid directly to Shaw AFB Services Squadron, which is a percentage of total sales, plus concession income. The remainder of the dividends is paid directly to the Air Force’s Central Service Fund. Victory by Valor “Shaw Air Force Base is home to the Air Force's largest combat F-16 wing -- the 20th Fighter Wing -- whose mission is to provide, project and sustain combat-ready air forces. Shaw also serves as home to Headquarters Ninth Air Force and U.S. Central Command Air Forces (USCENTAF), whose primary mission is to project decisive air and space power for U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) and America.” On behalf of our managers and associates, we pledge to offer courteous and friendly customer service to our patrons, “The Best Customers in The World”!
