Why Greenville South Carolina

Greenville's Economic Climate

North Carolina and South Carolina have seen a surge in capital investment in the past decade. Upstate South Carolina has seen a tremendous influx of people, families, and businesses coming not just from across the US but from around the world. Greenville’s diversified workforce, friendly community, and high quality of life make Greenville an attractive place for business investment

In fact the Greenville area ranked 4th out of America’s 50 hottest cities in the nation for European business expansion, (Resources 5) and Greenville ranked 11th out of Expansion Management magazines 50 hottest cities for manufacturing expansions and relocations (Resources 6).

A major factor in Greenville’s business attractiveness and growth is its location along the mega growth I-85 corridor in the Southeast. I-85 passes from Richmond, VA all the way to Atlanta Georgia. The Upstate’s residential and commercial real estate growth and development is extending toward Charlotte, North Carolina, along I-85 and southward to Atlanta, Georgia, along I-85. (Atlanta is roughly 145 miles south of Greenville and Charlotte is approximately 93 miles north of Greenville, South Carolina.) 

Parts of South Carolina’s Upstate are considered a foreign trade zone areas (Resources 1). According to the Greenville Chamber of Commerce, Upstate South Carolina now has more than 240 international firms representing 23 nations, with Hitachi, Michelin and BMW being just a few of the major worldwide corporate players (Resources 2).

South Carolina now ranks #2 in the nation in terms of the percentage of its private workforce employed by job-creating foreign investment or jobs supported by U.S. subsidiaries of foreign companies. Upstate South Carolina has one the highest levels of foreign capital investment per capita in the nation (Resources 1) Greenville County also has one of the strongest concentrations of engineers per capita in the country. We are now known nationally as one of the main engineering hubs in the Southeast. As you can see, employment and investment opportunities abound in Greenville and the Upstate. But numbers tell the story best: Greenville County boasts an extremely low unemployment rate of 3%.
