In 1994, when the first BMW produced in North America - a 318i - rolled off the company's assembly line in Spartanburg County, South Carolina's economic landscape was transformed.
In economic development, it's no secret that companies locate where they know they can be profitable and have success.
South Carolina is home to some of the most successful and innovative companies in the aerospace, agribusiness, automotive, manufacturing and technology industries. And, we believe that every business, large or small, deserves every benefit it can get.
To showcase South Carolina’s business-friendly landscape and build relationships with some of the top names in the global automotive industry, S.C. Commerce recently led a delegation to Frankfurt, Germany for the International Motor Show (IAA).
The S.C. Commerce India office is now offering businesses located in South Carolina assistance with exporting products to India.
In South Carolina, we make some pretty remarkable things, from aircraft to premium automobiles to high-tech household appliances. We also make a multitude of life sciences-related products, such as medical devices and pharmaceuticals.
