Local snacks and grab-and-go at Palmetto Market
South Carolina palmetto logos are everywhere inside Palmetto Market in the Main terminal at Charleston International (CHS), and the mix is part convenience store, part local souvenir stand. You’ll see regional packaged snacks and candy alongside standard airport staples, plus bottled drinks you can grab in under a minute on the walk to the gates. It sits post-security in the main concourse, so you can swing by after you clear TSA and before you hit the A or B gate split.
Expect typical airport pricing here: chips and candy hover around $3–$5, bottled drinks around $4–$6, and small local gift items climb quickly into the $10–$25 range. The food side leans grab-and-go with sandwiches, yogurt, and snack packs that work for short hops to Atlanta or longer legs up to New York. If you just need a water and a snack in under 5 minutes, this is faster than detouring to a sit-down spot near Gate B5.
Gift shelves carry South Carolina-branded items, including palmetto tree mugs, logo tumblers, and state-themed keychains mixed with standard travel essentials like neck pillows and phone chargers. That mix works if you forgot a small gift and don’t want to hunt through the rest of the Main terminal. You’ll also find regional food souvenirs, like locally labeled sauces and snacks, that actually say “Charleston” or “Palmetto State” on the packaging.
Tip: grab any local item you like when you see it; stock shifts often, and that exact Charleston-branded mug or snack might not be on the shelf when you walk back past 20 minutes later.
