Message from Secretary Hitt: Supporting our Existing Industries

As the state’s business agency, the S.C. Department of Commerce is tasked with more than just recruiting new companies to South Carolina. From export assistance and workforce consultation to data and research services and much more, our team also works to support the state’s existing industries. In that vein, one of the most important resources that we offer to South Carolina firms is our material service locator program – SourceSC.

Known previously as Buy South Carolina, SourceSC is designed to connect South Carolina companies with in-state suppliers and vendors. It allows our existing industries to improve on efficiency by decreasing operation and freight costs, reducing supplier delivery times and improving business relations with suppliers.
