Message from Secretary Hitt: Spreading the Word that S.C. is 'Just Right'

Last week, Team South Carolina received a tremendous accolade as the Palmetto State was named Business Facilities' 2017 State of the Year. Regarding the recognition, Editor-in-Chief Jack Rogers cited South Carolina's strong automotive industry and ongoing economic development efforts saying, "The Palmetto State has been laying the foundation for sustainable growth across a diversified portfolio of growth sectors."

As we move forward and look to ensure future economic prosperity in South Carolina, awards like this one are important. After all, they help us continue to spread the word that our state truly is 'Just right' for business.
